Navigating permits is a crucial part of nearly every Bay Area renovation. Your general contractor will manage all permitting and inspections on your behalf, ensuring the process runs smoothly. More importantly, they can offer valuable insights into how certain home modifications might conflict with local regulations—potentially requiring exceptions from your zoning board and extending your project timeline. It’s just one of the many ways they can help you prepare and make informed renovation decisions.
