Q: Does patio installation require a permit?

• <div><p>In many cases, you will need a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-really-need-building-permit.htm">building permit</a> for your patio, but it depends on the type of patio. Generally speaking, any improvements to your land considered &ldquo;permanent&rdquo; will require a permit. Since a concrete patio is a permanent foundation, you will need a permit. On the other hand, a paver patio or flagstone patio usually sits over gravel and sand, are considered &ldquo;temporary&rdquo; improvements, and rarely require permits. To be safe, you should always ask your building department or your patio company if a permit will be necessary.</p></div>
