Florida permit coordination
Florida Permit Expediting Services
1.2.3. Permit Solutions coordinates residential and commercial permit applications throughout Florida. We organize documents, coordinate plans, submit applications, track reviews and manage corrections so property owners and contractors have one clear point of contact.
Permit approval and processing times are controlled by the applicable building, zoning and regulatory authorities. No private expeditor can guarantee an approval date.
What does a permit expeditor do?
A permit expeditor manages the administrative steps required to move a permit application through the correct jurisdiction. This can include confirming requirements, organizing applications and supporting documents, coordinating plans and signatures, submitting the package, tracking departmental reviews and managing correction responses. The local building official—not the expeditor—reviews compliance and issues the permit.

Clear responsibility
What Expediting Can—and Cannot—Do
A complete submission and consistent follow-up can reduce preventable administrative delays. An expeditor cannot waive code requirements, approve defective plans or control a government review schedule.
Permit expediting is also different from private provider work. A qualified private provider may perform eligible plan review, inspections or both when properly retained under Florida Statute 553.791. Learn about our private provider coordination.

Florida Permit Expediting FAQs
Can a permit expeditor guarantee faster approval?
No. Review time depends on the jurisdiction, project scope, plan quality, reviewer workload and correction cycles. Good preparation and follow-up can prevent avoidable delays, but the building department controls review and approval.
How long does a Florida building permit take?
There is no single timeline for every permit. A simple trade permit follows a different path from an addition, commercial build-out or change of use. The reviewing departments, completeness of the package and comments issued all affect timing.
What documents are commonly required?
Common items include an application, property and owner information, scope of work, contractor records, plans, surveys, product approvals and project-specific calculations or forms. The exact list comes from the applicable jurisdiction.
Do you handle residential and commercial permits?
Yes. We assist with residential renovations, additions, roofing and trade permits, as well as commercial tenant improvements, build-outs, signage and multi-trade applications.
Can you help with rejected plans or reviewer comments?
Yes. We organize open comments by discipline, coordinate responses with the responsible contractor or design professional and manage the corrected resubmittal.
Can you help with unpermitted work?
Yes. The property may require an after-the-fact permit, existing-condition plans, professional evaluations, inspections and corrections. The city determines what must be submitted and corrected.
Can you close an open or expired permit?
We can research the record, identify missing inspections or documents and coordinate the requested steps. Some cases require updated plans, a contractor, corrective work, a permit extension or additional inspections.
How much do permit expediting services cost?
Fees depend on the jurisdiction, permit type, number of review disciplines and condition of the existing documents. We provide a project scope and quote after review. Government and third-party professional fees are separate when applicable.
