Doubts
FAQ’s
What exactly does a permit expeditor do?
An expeditor is a specialized professional who manages the entire building permit and municipal approval process on your behalf. We prepare applications, gather architectural drawings, submit the paperwork to the town, and persistently follow up with inspectors to ensure your permits or Certificates of Occupancy are issued as quickly as possible.
I am trying to sell my house, but the town says I have an "open permit" from 10 years ago. Can you help?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common issues that derail home sales in Long Island. We investigate the old permit, determine what inspections or paperwork were missed, and work directly with the building department to close it out and secure your final CO so you can sell.
The previous owner built a deck without a permit. Will I be fined?
You can be held liable for illegal structures on your property, even if you didn’t build them. We specialize in “legalizing” existing structures by drafting “as-built” plans, applying for the retroactive permits, and ensuring the structure meets current codes without you facing massive penalties.
How long does it take to get a building permit in Nassau or Suffolk County?
Timelines vary wildly depending on the specific town, village, and the complexity of your project. Simple permits might take a few weeks, while major additions requiring zoning board variances can take months. Our expediting services are designed to minimize this timeline by ensuring zero errors on your application.
Do I need an expeditor if I already have an architect?
While some architects file their own plans, many do not handle the tedious, daily follow-up required at the town hall. By using TCR Builders for expediting, you have a dedicated team pushing your paperwork through the system aggressively, rather than it sitting on a clerk’s desk.
Do you handle zoning board variances and hearings?
Yes. If your proposed project violates a local setback or height restriction, you will need a variance. We prepare the complex applications, gather neighbor notifications, and can represent you at the local Zoning Board of Appeals hearings to fight for your project’s approval.
