The Village of Wesley Chapel requires residential building permits for additions and structural work, and Union County has its own rules for specific project types. Decks more than 30 inches above grade require a permit. Retaining walls above roughly four feet require engineering review and a permit. Any permitted project also needs a survey prepared by a licensed land surveyor or engineer before the permit is issued. That's a step a lot of homeowners don't know about until the process stalls. We factor the permit requirements into the project scope upfront, so there are no surprises midway through. If you're planning
curb appeal work or a structural addition, it's worth knowing what Union County requires before demo day.
