How BRC Handles the Permit Process
01
Scope Review
We determine what permits are required before any work begins
02
Plan Preparation
We coordinate drawings, engineering, and Title 24 compliance
03
City Submission
We submit to the building department and handle plan check comments
04
Inspection Prep
We prepare work at each phase — framing, rough-in, final
05
Permit Close-Out
Final inspection, sign-off, and permit closure — fully documented
Unpermitted Work Has Real Consequences
City fines, stop-work orders, complications at sale or refinance — and in some cases, you may be required to demolish unpermitted work at your own cost. BRC coordinates permits as standard procedure on every applicable project. It's not an add-on. It's how we protect you.
Financial Assistance Programs

Grants, Rebates &
Energy Programs

Federal, state, and utility programs can offset a significant portion of your project cost — but most homeowners don't know they exist, or don't apply in time. We help you identify what you qualify for before the project starts.

These Programs Take Time — Start Early

Most grant and rebate programs require applications weeks or months before work begins. Some programs have waiting lists. Utility rebates often require pre-approval before installation. If you wait until your project starts, you may miss the window entirely. Sign up below and we'll help you identify and apply for programs that fit your project.
