From application to approval.
Permit filing for plumbers, electricians, and general contractors, anywhere in the US.
Over 10 years of permit experience.
Permit management for contractors, nationwide. You send me the job, I handle the permit from the first upload to the issued permit, and I keep you posted the whole way.
Of course you know how to apply for permits. Trade Permit Co. is about saving you time.
Contractors pull permits every day. The headache is the hours that go with them. Every town has a different online portal, different forms, and different follow up, and it all takes time away from the job itself. You hand the permit work to me, and I handle the application, the portal, and the follow up. You get the hours back.
What I handle
The whole permit, start to finish, so it is one less thing on your plate.
-
Permit filings
I prepare and file your permit applications in the town portal, using the job info, licenses, and insurance you send me.
-
Tracking and follow up
I watch the permit through updates, review comments, and payment, right up to issuance, and I keep you posted as it moves.
-
Inspection scheduling
When you want me to, I schedule your inspections for you, rough or final, and confirm the details back to you.
-
Photo uploads
If a town asks for job photos as part of the permit, I upload them into the portal so nothing holds the job up.
-
Paperwork help
Along with permits, I can help with documentation, proposals, and invoices when the office side piles up.
-
Any town, any portal
Every municipality does it a little differently. I work in whatever portal your job is in, wherever the job is.
-
Additional office support
I do additional office support upon request.
How it works
Five simple steps. You only have to do the first one.
-
1
You send me the job
Send over the job info, your licenses, and your insurance info. That is all I need to get started.
-
2
I file it in the portal
I upload everything into the town online portal and submit the application for you.
-
3
I track it to issuance
I follow the permit through updates, payment, and issuance, and I keep you posted along the way so you always know where it stands.
-
4
Inspections, if you want them
Say the word and I schedule the inspections too, rough or final.
-
5
Add it to the job invoice
Many contractors simply list this as a permit administration line item on their customer's invoice. That way the cost is part of the job, just like the town permit fee.
Who it is for
If your work needs a permit, I can file it. If you pull permits and would rather spend that time on the job, this is for you. I work with contractors nationwide, one permit at a time or as an ongoing extra set of hands. Use me when you need me. There is no contract and no minimum.
About
Pamela Szal, Owner
I co-own an electrical business and I have done permit work for over a decade, so I know firsthand how much time portals and paperwork eat out of a contractor's week. I started Trade Permit Co. to take that work off other contractors' plates.
I co own an electrical business, so pulling permits is part of my daily life. I do it for my own jobs too. I know the portals, the delays, and how much time it can take. That is why I started Trade Permit Co., to do that same work for other contractors.
