Hi Erica,
I am approving another extension for your project for 180 days until July 17th, 2026.
If all that’s left is to tile the shower our inspectors are pretty lenient and can approve the
final inspection for owner/builders.
When you call in the final, just ask.

You don't often get email from feistebear@hotmail.com. Learn why this is important
Good morning Mr. Plano,
I'm writing today to see what options I have for extending my building permit which expires
next month. Since our last conversation, I have installed/completed the floors, cabinets,
countertops, doors, trim, 2 sinks and toilet, and have received a final on my state electrical
permit this month. I am finishing trimming out closets and painting trim next month. Besides
that, the only remaining item I believe I have is the walk-in shower which requires pouring the
shower base, hanging durock, laying tile and installing a glass door. Shower valve is in but floor
drain needs to be set. The cost to tile a shower has been prohibitive to completing the project
in addition to everything else over the last several months. My plan is to complete the shower
in late summer when I've had more time to save up and potentially get some competitive bids
for tile work. I believe I was told that getting an inspection would extend the permit out but
wanted to check first so I didn't waste anyone's time.
Thank you for your consideration. Please let me know how you'd like me to proceed.
