We can help with

  • Errors or outdated information on a page (see corrections).
  • Suggestions for cities, projects or topics to cover.
  • Questions about how we source and verify information.

We cannot help with

  • Permit applications, inspections, fees or the status of a permit: contact the building department. Our department finder gives the office and phone for each city we cover.
  • Whether your specific project is exempt: ask the building department, which can interpret its own code.
  • Legal advice.
