Rather have us handle the permit for you?

These guides are free to read. If you'd prefer not to sort it out yourself, our $25 permit review finds out whether your project can be permitted and exactly what your township requires — and we can prepare your township-ready plans. The $25 pays for that work and comes straight off your build when you move forward.

Building larger or double-wide? This part matters.

For simple, smaller buildings we handle the whole permit process for you. But for larger or double-wide structures — anything 16 ft wide and up — approval takes more legwork, and the single biggest thing that gets these across the finish line is you being willing to go to the township and talk with them personally. We prepare everything and coach you on exactly what to say, but a local homeowner advocating for their own project moves the needle in a way we simply can’t do remotely.

What a township prints on its paperwork doesn’t always reflect what they’ll actually approve in person — which is exactly why your involvement makes the difference on bigger builds. Think of it as a team effort: we do the heavy lifting, and your willingness to show up is often what gets a larger structure approved.

Double-wide / oversized reviews are $75 (vs $25 for standard single-wide builds) because they involve significantly more work. Just like the $25, that $75 credits straight to your build when you move forward.
