Permitting Services
Building permits exist for a reason: they protect homeowners by ensuring construction work meets safety and structural codes. But for most homeowners, navigating county and city permitting processes can feel overwhelming. Catalino Quality Construction handles permitting for you, start to finish, so your project gets done right and stays fully compliant.
We Handle the Entire Permit Process
With nearly 15 years of experience working in Cobb County, Fulton County, and surrounding jurisdictions, Robert Catalino and his team know exactly what each municipality requires. We manage the complete permitting process for every project that needs one:
- Permit applications: We prepare and submit all required documentation to the appropriate city or county building department.
- Plan review coordination: We work directly with plan reviewers to address questions and ensure approvals move forward without unnecessary delays.
- Inspection scheduling: We coordinate all required inspections at each phase of construction, from foundation to framing to final.
- Code compliance: We build to meet or exceed all applicable Georgia residential building codes, so inspections pass the first time.
Local Expertise Matters
Permitting requirements vary from one jurisdiction to another. A deck permit in Kennesaw may have different setback requirements than one in Roswell. A kitchen remodel in unincorporated Cobb County follows different review processes than one inside Marietta city limits. Our team knows these local differences because we work in these communities every day.
We regularly pull permits through:
- Cobb County Development Services
- City of Marietta
- City of Roswell
- City of Kennesaw
- City of Smyrna
- Fulton County
When Is a Permit Required?
Not every home improvement project requires a permit, but many do. Generally, you need a permit for work that involves:
- Structural changes (removing or adding walls, framing additions)
- Electrical, plumbing, or HVAC modifications
- Roofing replacement
- Deck or patio construction
- Window or door openings in load-bearing walls
- Room additions or finished basements
If you're unsure whether your project needs a permit, we'll let you know during your free estimate. We never skip permits to save time or money, because cutting that corner can create serious problems when you go to sell your home or file an insurance claim.
Why Work With a Licensed Contractor
Hiring a licensed and insured general contractor like Catalino Quality Construction means your project is permitted properly from day one. Unpermitted work can result in fines, forced removal, and complications during home sales. We protect your investment by doing things the right way.
