Do I need a permit for window or exterior door replacement in Bath Township?

Permit may be required

It depends. Whether window or exterior door replacement needs a permit in Bath Township comes down to the details of your project.

Under the Residential Code of Ohio a simple like-for-like window or door swap in an existing opening is often treated as ordinary repair, but enlarging an opening, altering a header, or changing an egress window is structural work and requires a permit in most Ohio jurisdictions. Bedroom (sleeping room) windows must still meet RCO emergency escape and rescue opening requirements even when a permit is not pulled.
