At least once a week I have a client ask me if a particular project needs permitting or not. So to help them out and you, I have assembled this handy list for residents that fall within the City of Tampa. 

Residential Work Not Requiring A Permit
  • Minor, non-structural repairs, which does not include the cutting away of any wall, partition or any part thereof, with the approval of the building official or his designee
  • Repair faucets or valves, and unstop clogged drains and sewer lines.
  • Install A/C units (less than 3 tons), not connected to ducts.
  • Painting, cabinets, carpet, vinyl tile, and gutters, and certain types of fences.
  • Removal of trees not on the protected list such as Male Mulberry, Australian Pine, Eucalyptus, Chinaberry, Cherry Laurel, Brazilian Pepper, Monkey Puzzle, and Silk Oak
