Do I need a permit for kitchen remodel in Unincorporated Red River Parish?

Permit may be required

It depends. Whether kitchen remodel needs a permit in Unincorporated Red River Parish comes down to the details of your project.

There is no statewide list of kitchen work exempt from permits (LAC 17:I.107); new circuits, moved plumbing or gas lines, and wall changes are what usually require one. Louisiana currently amends NEC 210.52(C) so an island or peninsula does not need a receptacle, but provisions for a future receptacle must be provided if none is installed (LAC 17:I.115). The State Plumbing Board issues gas fitter licenses (La. R.S. 37:1368(J)), and plumbing or mechanical contracting worth $10,000 or more requires the matching LSLBC classification (La. R.S. 37:2150.1).

Local detail for Unincorporated Red River Parish: The Red River Parish Police Jury permit office issues permits. A parish building code bulletin names Louisiana IBTS as the third-party building code department; confirm the current inspection provider when you apply.
