Welcome to Permit Philly! We consult homeowners, developers, and businesses to get local approvals for their properties and projects. Whether you want to build a new apartment tower, renovate an old loft, or just open a restaurant, we figure out how to get your work approved, then secure the documents you need – all while keeping everyone involved in the process up to date and on schedule. Think of us like a general contractor for your paperwork.
What We Do
Put simply, we take the stress out of getting construction and zoning permits. We organize everything and everyone required to get Philadelphia permits – architects, lawyers, engineers, and contractors – to secure the permits your job requires. We file your paperwork with the City of Philadelphia. We notify you of developments in your case and upcoming deadlines. We refer you to qualified, reliable design and development professionals. We even create presentations when you meet with a city review board or a neighborhood organization.
How It Works
First, you explain your project to us – whether you’re ready to build, want to narrow your options, or are just considering buying a property, we’ll figure out how to get the local permits and licenses you need to realize your vision.
Second, we coordinate everyone involved in the work, collecting information and preparing forms required by the local jurisdiction to apply for permits, craft research summaries, or obtain licenses.
Third, we submit plans, forms, and other documents to whichever local department needs them – or we start writing, if you need a feasibility report. We track our time on research and monitor the status of applications. If you have to present your project for appeal, we prep you for the meeting. And if something goes wrong, we jump in to fix it.
Finally, we deliver the goods: licenses, department approvals, permits, or the writeup you need to inform your decisions.
