Florida’s permitting process can often feel like an endless cycle of paperwork, waiting, and frustration. Whether you’re building a new home or completing a commercial construction project, navigating through the system to get your permit approved can be challenging. Fortunately, Private Provider services, like those offered by Tew & Taylor, provide a streamlined solution to make this process faster and easier.
What Are Private Provider Services?
In Florida, a Private Provider is a licensed third-party entity that is authorized to take over key aspects of the permitting process. Instead of relying on the local government’s building department, which may be overwhelmed with work and have lengthy backlogs, a Private Provider like Tew & Taylor manages the entire process—from plan review to inspections to submitting for your Certificate of Occupancy (CO).
Using a Private Provider means that your permitting process is faster, more efficient, and often more cost-effective.
Streamlined Plan Review Process
The first major step in obtaining a construction permit is the plan review. If you work directly with the local municipality, this can take weeks or even months, depending on the backlog.
By using Tew & Taylor as your Private Provider, we take full responsibility for this step. Our team reviews your construction plans quickly and thoroughly to ensure compliance with the Florida Building Code and other local regulations.
Faster Inspections
Once your plans are approved, the next step is inspection. Municipal inspections often face long wait times, which can delay your project and increase costs. At Tew & Taylor, we offer same-day or next-day inspections, ensuring that your project stays on track without unnecessary delays.
Avoiding Red Tape and Delays
Private Providers like Tew & Taylor are governed by strict timelines. Florida law mandates that if a Private Provider is handling plan review or inspections, the local building official must act within a specified period.
Seamless Transition to CO Submission
Once your construction project is completed, the final step is submitting for the Certificate of Occupancy (CO). This is the last hurdle before your project is considered legally complete. Working with a Private Provider ensures that this process is handled quickly and seamlessly. We’ll submit your CO request, ensuring your project is officially approved for occupancy without additional red tape or delay.
