Basement finishing: need permit?
I am having a licensed contractor finish my basement: he will put in a new floor and new stairs, repair and paint the walls and a window, take out some wooden dividers and take out the ceiling. He will also build a stone wall around the furnace area. A plumber will replace the water heater and reroute two hot water pipes. An electrician will reroute the wiring exposed by the removal of the ceiling. The basement will continue to function as a storage space.
Do I need a DOB permit? Thanks!
