Building

The Town of Durham requires building permits be completed for most all types of construction/renovation projects.  Please see the FAQ page for more information.

Permit Applications and supporting documentation are available for download at the links below.  After all required information has been submitted, it generally takes a week to ten days for a building permit to be approved.  It can take up to two weeks during the summer months and up to 4 weeks for large residential projects.

**PLEASE DO NOT ROUND UP BUILDING PERMIT FEES**
