How do I get started with my project?
When a designer comes out to measure your property you must have a copy of the survey of your property and a school tax bill. The designer will also collect a retainer to begin the project and sign the contract. The drafter will then measure your property and take pictures, both inside and outside your home. At that time tell the designer what ideas you had to improve your home. This will then take 3 - 4 weeks for your preliminary drawing to be completed. Once the preliminaries are completed our office will contact you to set up an appointment to review the plans with the designer. After your meeting it will take another 3 ? 4 weeks for the plans to be finalized.

What necessary steps do I need to take to retain a building permit?
In order for Long Island Expeditors to file your building permit application you must provide us with your most recent survey, a copy of your most recent school tax bill, and a check made out to the building department for the application fees, (these fees may vary from different building departments). The next step will be to come into our office to sign and notarizing all necessary paperwork. Once the plans are done we file the application packet along with the required application fee. An application number from the building department will be issued, in order to check the status of your permit. From that point it takes approximately 2 - 6 weeks for the town to approve the permit. The town will inform us of the remaining balance on the permit; once this is paid a permit will be issued.

What happens after I get the building permit?
After receiving a building permit you are able to start construction. If a contractor has been retained, they will know all of the necessary steps. If a homeowner decides to work themselves take into consideration after pouring the foundation the town inspector needs to approve the work. The inspector needs to repeat this process for framing, plumbing, electrical, till the job is complete.

What is the contractor?s job and what are his duties with the filing process?
If you do have a contractor we need an original copy of their workman?s compensation insurance, with the shareholder from the building department of the town in which you live. A copy of their home improvement license and copy of their liability insurance. If you do not have a contractor you can sign a waver of workman?s compensation also know as a BP-1 form. This means you are taking the responsibility under your homeowners insurance. After hiring a contractor you will then need to submit the above information to the Town.
