Your renovation needs a permit.
We handle it for you.
Most contractors skip the permit. That leaves you exposed — legally, financially, and when it's time to sell. PullMyPermit navigates Louisville's building department so you don't have to.
Three steps. We do the heavy lifting.
Tell us about your project
Fill out a short form describing your renovation — the project type, rough scope, and your address. Takes five minutes.
We prepare everything
We identify exactly what Louisville Metro requires, pull the correct forms, prepare your site plan checklist, and package everything for submission.

Depending on your service tier, we either hand you a ready-to-submit package or handle the entire submission ourselves. You just sign where needed.

Pricing varies by project complexity. ADUs, additions, and projects in historic districts or flood zones may be quoted separately. Contact us for a free estimate.
An unpermitted renovation can cost you more than the renovation itself.
Contractors skip permits because it's faster and easier for them. But the legal exposure stays with you — the homeowner — long after they've cashed the check.
Stop-work orders
Louisville code enforcement can halt your project mid-build and require demolition of unpermitted work.
Insurance claims denied
If unpermitted work is involved in a fire, flood, or structural failure, your insurer may deny the claim entirely.
Sale complications
Unpermitted additions must be disclosed. Buyers can demand permits be pulled retroactively — or walk away entirely.
Personal liability
If someone is injured in a space built without permits, you may face direct legal liability as the property owner.
