Commercial Permits
Organize commercial permit work before submission.
AI-assisted commercial permitting for tenant improvements, change-of-use, restaurants, and ground-up construction. Plan review, code mapping, occupancy.
Overview
Tenant improvements
AI-assisted intake can propose occupancy and accessibility considerations from the supplied project data. A qualified professional and the authority must confirm classifications, thresholds, and required cover sheets.
Change of use
Switching a retail space to F&B? Permit Junkie surfaces ventilation, grease interceptor, restroom count, and parking implications before you sign the lease.
Health & fire coordination
Restaurants and assembly uses need parallel reviews. We sequence health, fire, and building submissions so your timeline doesn't stack.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I always need a commercial permit?
- Requirements depend on the authority, property, and scope. Permit Junkie can compare your project with available jurisdiction records, but unresolved or stale authority information is labeled for confirmation with the issuing department.
- How long does a commercial permit take to approve?
- Approval time varies by authority, project complexity, review workload, and corrections. Permit Junkie shows a processing estimate only when a sourced record is available; confirm current timing with the issuing department.
- What documents do I need for a commercial permit?
- Typical packets may include an application, scope of work, site plan, scaled drawings, and contractor information. Vizar builds a project checklist from your answers and available authority records, while visibly marking items that still need confirmation.
