Do I need a permit for kitchen remodel in Glen Rock?
It depends. Whether kitchen remodel needs a permit in Glen Rock comes down to the details of your project.
Cabinets, flooring, and trim are ordinary maintenance, as is replacing a dishwasher, a stove or oven with no change in fuel type, pipe size, location, or electrical characteristics, and a range hood of 400 cfm or less (or no more than the old one) that recirculates or vents outdoors (N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.7(c)). Up to five new outlets where existing circuits or panel space and service are adequate, and new wiring incidental to installing a range, oven, or dryer, are minor work: a permit is required, but work may start after notice (N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.17A(c)4). Removing a bearing wall or beam needs a full construction permit, and new or relocated gas piping is never ordinary maintenance (N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.7(b)).
