Building Permit for Room Addition, Bathroom Addition, Sunroom Addition, Patio Enclosures, Patio Roofs

Obtaining a building permit for construction projects is necessary and provides a major layer of the homeowners protection. The most important advantage is that only a licensed contractor can file and obtain a building permit. This alone will assure the homeowner that he is an "good hands" and the construction project will done correctly and will comply with all building codes and local regulation. Of course the homeowner have the option to file the permit as an "owner builder" but than he will not have any protection from the people, usually not licensed, who will do the work for him.

The most frequent question that we get from a homeowner is "how long it takes to obtain the building permit"? The quick answer is: Depends in what Township, City or County the permit will be obtained. Each municipality has its own building department and therefore, the bureaucratic process will vary from place to place.

We at AZ Enclosures and Sunrooms experienced very friendly and consumer oriented building departments that usually process the building permit application within few hours to few days. We also experienced an UN friendly, UN caring and not consumer oriented bureaucrats that prolong the permit process to over 5 weeks or more.

That why it is important to work with an experienced and license contractor, who knows and understand the building permit process in all the municipalities in the state of Arizona.

Bathroom Addition for 30% to 40% Less


Bathroom addition is one of the best type of improvement that you can do to your home. Most people do not have enough bathrooms in their home and would love to have additional one. Also, any additional bathroom will automatically add to the value of the house. It will give you the best return on investment and will help one day is the selling of the house. However, the key element to achieve the best return on investment is to have the right design in order to lower the construction cost. One of the most costly aspect of a new bathroom addition is the connection of the new waist (drain) line to the existing house main waist pipe. It might be necessary to electronically locate the house waist pipe under the concrete floor. In short, you should hire an experience, license contractor to do the job and not a handyman in your neighborhood. Just remember that the over all cost of the bathroom addition can escalate because of purchasing expensive fixtures. As you probably know you can buy a sink faucet at Home Depot for less than $50 but also you can spend as much as $1,500 for a faucet. Just remember that you can control your construction cost by choosing fixtures and accessories wisely.

Building Green and Energy Efficient Sunroom Additions


Regardless of your belief level on "Global warming" or "Climate Change" you always should consider to incorporate few "Green Construction" techniques and materials in any construction project at your home or business. Note that I recommend few and not everything that is available in the marketplace. Why do I recommend few and not everything? because what ever you select should pass the "does it make sense?" and what is the "return on investment" tests.

Window and door glass insulation should always be at the minimum of double insulated glass wit a low E coating. Most of the window manufacturers provides several options for total insulation value. Check with your contractor or with the manufacturer for available options.

Remember that energy gain or loss passes through materials with the least resistance. Therefor, in a room addition or in sun room addition with a large glass area it will make more sense to invest in a good insulated glass. Do not go overboard in wall and ceiling insulation because their level of resistance is much higher than any glass resistance. In this example, the good insulated glass will give you a better "return on investment" than the wall insulation. Our common sense tests should be applied to any type of construction project. Such as, room addition, sun room addition, patio enclosure and most of the home remodeling projects. Feel free to contact AZ Enclosures and Sun rooms, a division of S and S builders, regarding "green building and "green construction"
