Can I do the work and then apply for a permit online?
Work started without a permit is subject to double permit fees. Permits need to be at least applied for before work is started. Emergency work such as water service line breaks, water heaters or furnace / AC work may begin prior to the permit application, but the contractor needs to obtain a permit the next business day.
