Permits

Who permits plumbing work in the Gainesville area?

Alachua County's fee schedule charges anyone who starts work on a plumbing system before the permit is issued a penalty of 100 percent of the usual fee, on top of the permit fees.

Levy County lists miscellaneous plumbing as a permit type of its own, filed with a plumbing isometric diagram.

Those are the counties' own words. A city with a building department of its own, Gainesville among them, issues the permit inside its limits, so the street address decides where a plumbing job's permit comes from; the Gainesville-area page lists every office.

The City of Gainesville's Building Division registers a company to pull permits inside the city limits only if it is a state-certified contractor.

Unincorporated Alachua County: Growth Management Building Division
Unincorporated Levy County: Development Department
City building departments: Every office in the area
