Service Questions

What does a permit expediter do?

We handle the town side of your building project. We get building permits, close out open or expired permits, and cure violations. We coordinate the survey and plans, file with the town, answer plan-review and zoning comments, and schedule inspections up to your Certificate of Occupancy (CO) or Certificate of Completion.

Which areas do you serve?

Nassau County only: the Towns of Hempstead, North Hempstead and Oyster Bay, the Cities of Glen Cove and Long Beach, and every village. Each village has its own building department, and we work with each one. We don't serve Suffolk County or New York City.

Do you work with homeowners or businesses?

Both. Most of our clients are homeowners, and we also handle commercial work.

What can you legalize?

Finished basements, kitchens, bathrooms, decks, fences, sheds, gazebos, pools, hot tubs, garages, dormers, cellar entrances and AC/HVAC.

Can you close out an old permit?

Yes, even decades-old permits. See open permit close-outs.

What plans and drawings do you line up?

Permit-ready plans, site plans and drawings for additions, dormers, garages, decks, basements and alterations.

What should I have ready?

Your survey if you have one, any existing plans or permits, the violation notice if there is one, and photos. We'll tell you if anything else is needed, such as an electrical certificate.

What if my project needs a variance?

If your project needs a variance or a zoning hearing, we'll flag it early. We can refer you to a zoning/land-use attorney.

How fast do you respond?
