While every municipality has its own set of permit fee schedules, this provides a general guideline:
- Permit fees are often based on the square footage of the building or structure or cost of the project for new construction.
- Electrical permit fees are often determined by the service size in amperage.
- Mechanical permit fees are often determined by valuation.
- Plumbing permits are often determined by the number of fixtures to be installed.
- Roofing permits are often determined by project valuation
