Permit required? Jacksonville FL
Hello All,
I am a new investor and looking at a potential house to do my first
flip. I understand that during the flip process, i will be required to
have a licensed contractor for major electrical and plumbing work.
1)
My first question is about converting a full bedroom into a bath/
laundry room- would i need a permit for this as i am not sure if its
just comes under carpentry and drywall work? The plumbing and electrical
will be done by pulling necessary permit if this happens.
2) Is repairing a leaky roof(In couple spots) and replacing any damaged underlayment & sheathing require a permit?
The shingles will be put back on these spots but not the entire roof.
Thank you so much for the replies.
