Chicago Porch Replacement

[Richard Quijano]

I have a 2 flat which needs a new porch but does NOT have current violations. I am working with an architect for plans.  Has anyone replaced a porch and can provide any advice regarding meeting Chicago's strict requirements?

@Richard Quijano You need a very reliable contractor to handle the construction and subsequent city inspections. I have found that Architects play a supporting role in porch construction by obtaining building permits. Hopefully you already have a good contractor. I am happy to suggest some good porch contractors. Good luck!
