Do I need a permit for bathroom remodel in Town of Glastonbury?

Permit likely required

Most likely yes. Bathroom remodel usually requires a permit in Connecticut. Confirm the specifics with Town of Glastonbury.

Tiling, cabinets, countertops, and similar finish work are exempt, and removing and reinstalling a toilet is exempt, but replacing or rearranging valves, pipes, or fixtures needs a permit (CSBC R105.2, Building item 6 and Plumbing item 2). New circuits, fans, or relocated wiring need an electrical permit; bath exhaust ducting by a registered home improvement contractor does not need a sheet metal license (CGS 20-340(16)). When interior alterations, repairs, or additions requiring a permit occur, or a sleeping room is added, the Connecticut amendments require smoke alarms throughout the dwelling unit as for new construction, plus carbon monoxide alarms (CSBC R314.2.2 and R315.2.2); exterior-only work and trade-only work are excepted. An owner may do electrical, plumbing, heating, cooling, and solar work in a single-family home the owner occupies or will occupy without a trade license, but the work still needs inspection and approval by the building official (CGS 20-340(11)); the exemption does not cover two-family homes or rentals.
