Field Issuance Remodel (FIR) Program

What is the FIR Program?

The Field Issuance Remodel (FIR) Program is a streamlined permit process designed for residential remodeling projects. This program allows qualified contractors to perform plan reviews and field inspections, reducing the time and complexity of the traditional permit process.

How Does the FIR Program Work?

The FIR Program streamlines the permit process by allowing FIR-registered contractors to review plans and conduct inspections in the field. This reduces wait times and simplifies the permitting process for qualifying residential remodeling projects. Contractors work directly with inspectors to ensure code compliance throughout the project.

Who is Eligible for the FIR Program?

The FIR Program is available for residential remodeling projects that meet specific criteria. Projects must be alterations, additions, or repairs to existing residential structures. New construction and certain complex projects may not qualify. We can help determine if your project qualifies for the FIR Program.

What Are the Benefits of the FIR Program?

Benefits include faster permit processing, reduced wait times, streamlined inspections, direct communication with inspectors, and a more efficient overall project timeline. The program is designed to make remodeling projects move more smoothly while maintaining safety and code compliance.

Does FIR Program Meet Code Standards?

Yes, all FIR Program projects must meet the same building codes and standards as traditional permit processes. The program simply streamlines the administrative process while maintaining full code compliance and safety standards.
