MoCo Permit Question
Does anyone have any experience obtaining a permit in Montgomery County? My husband and I want to add a bathroom upstairs. I have an uncle, who is a contractor but not licensed here, who will do the work.
Can I, as the homeowner, get a permit in my name and have my uncle do the work? Thanks!
Re: MoCo Permit Question
pp is right you don't need a permit for anything basic. we renovated a bathroom and took everything down to the studs and we didn't need one - but we didn't mess with electrical or gas.
i'm pretty sure electrical work will require a permit - so if you're creating outlets that didn't used to exist, adding wiring, circuits, etc. then yes, i think you need one because the work needs to be inspected. if he's not licensed here and he's going to do electrical work, he'll have to take a test through the county to be able to do it legally.
i have no idea about the name issue though. you might want to just call the permit office and flat out ask.
