Do I need a permit for residential demolition in Bartlett?

Permit likely required

Most likely yes. Residential demolition usually requires a permit in Illinois. Confirm the specifics with Bartlett.

Illinois EPA states that the federal asbestos NESHAP and other asbestos regulations do not apply to privately owned homes and apartments with four or fewer units, unless the building was once used for public or commercial purposes. Illinois EPA still advises hiring a qualified inspector before any demolition and removing asbestos-containing material before a building is demolished. IDPH keeps the list of licensed asbestos inspectors. Where NESHAP applies, the owner or operator must file the Demolition/Renovation/Asbestos Project Notification Form with Illinois EPA 10 working days before starting. Some municipalities add their own permit fees or asbestos and demolition rules.
