Permits & inspections in Montgomery County

The paperwork is the part most contractors gloss over.

A whole-home renovation usually needs a building permit plus separate electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits — each with its own inspection, each on its own timeline. Pulling them is not the hard part; sequencing them so no trade is standing around waiting for an inspector is.

Your Wheaton permit goes through the Montgomery County Department of Permitting 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 Wheaton homes

The house decides half the scope.

Wheaton is dense inside-the-Beltway housing — largely 1920s–1950s bungalows, capes and small colonials on tight lots, under Montgomery County jurisdiction. On these houses a kitchen or bath project is almost always an electrical project too, because the original service was never sized for a modern kitchen, and the original footprints are small enough that most projects become layout changes.

Wheaton general contractor questions

Straight answers

Do you handle general contractor in Wheaton, MD?

Who pulls the permit for a Wheaton general contractor project?

We do, under our license, through the Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services. A whole-home renovation usually needs a building permit plus separate electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits — each with its own inspection, each on its own timeline. Pulling them is not the hard part; sequencing them so no trade is standing around waiting for an inspector is.

What does general contractor cost in Wheaton?

It depends entirely on scope, so we do not publish a single number. You get a written, line-item price after a free on-site walkthrough — not a verbal ballpark over the phone.

Is the Wheaton walkthrough and estimate free?

Yes. The walkthrough and the written scope are free and yours to keep whether or not you hire us. There is no design fee and no consultation invoice.

Do I need a general contractor or can I hire trades directly?

You can hire trades directly, and for a single-trade job that is often cheaper. It stops being cheaper the moment two trades have to be sequenced around an inspection — someone has to own that schedule, and if it is not a contractor it is you. A licensed GC also carries the permit and the liability.
