Kitchens are the most permit-dense room in the house per square foot. We are a licensed contractor in Virginia (Class A #2705183185) — we pull the permits through Fairfax County Land Development Services, coordinate the licensed trades, and hand you a written line-item scope before demolition starts.
A kitchen that keeps its existing layout may only need electrical and plumbing permits. Move a sink, a gas line or a wall and a building permit joins them. Kitchens also carry requirements specific to the room — GFCI protection at the counters and dedicated small-appliance circuits — which is why the rough-in inspection has to pass before anything gets closed up.
Your McLean permit goes through Fairfax County Land Development Services. We pull it under our license and we hold the inspection schedule — you do not chase inspectors and you do not sign the application.
What we find in McLean homesMcLean is large-lot housing — 1950s–1970s ramblers and colonials alongside substantial newer construction and rebuilds. On the original houses, additions are common and usually worth doing properly: matching roofline, siding and HVAC capacity so the addition does not read as an add-on. Many neighborhoods also carry HOA architectural review.

Plan on the sink and range being out for most of the project. We stage the work so demolition, rough-in and inspection happen back to back rather than with gaps, and we give you the realistic date at the walkthrough — not the optimistic one.
