Can I do my own work on my home and do I need a permit?
Homeowners can do work on their own homestead dwelling. Permits and inspections are required and will be issued to the homestead property owner of record. Electrical work done by the owner is permitted up to the main service disconnect. Plumbing work done by an owner may not include connections to public sewers or supply mains.
