Residential Permit Filing & Coordination

Local Expertise About Local Processes

Permitting is the part of a remodel where projects go silent for weeks, and almost always for avoidable reasons.

Every jurisdiction in Metro Atlanta runs its own review with its own submittal standards, its own comment process, and its own timelines, so a package assembled for one city isn't automatically ready for the next.

At Delano Designs, we prepare your submittal documents to the right standard, file them, and respond to plan-review comments until the permit is issued. You don't chase the city, and neither does your contractor.

This service is available as part of a full design engagement or on its own if you already have drawings.

Where We Submit

• City of Atlanta:
  Office of Buildings, covering Buckhead, Morningside, Virginia-Highland, Midtown, Ansley Park, Inman Park, Old Fourth Ward, Grant Park, Candler Park, and every intown neighborhood inside city limits.

• Unincorporated DeKalb County:
  Druid Hills, North Druid Hills, and the pockets that never incorporated.

• City of Decatur:
  Its own office, its own requirements, separate from both Atlanta and DeKalb.

• City of Brookhaven:
  One of the metro's newer cities, with a review process distinct from surrounding DeKalb.

• City of Sandy Springs:
  Independent permitting since incorporation.

• Cities of Chamblee, Dunwoody, Roswell, and Alpharetta:
  Each reviewing and issuing on its own terms.

Not sure which one covers your address? Several intown streets sit on a boundary. We'll confirm it before anything gets filed.
