Apply for renewal before your existing permit expires to avoid a gap where construction becomes unauthorized. If your permit has already expired, renewal should be sought before resuming any further work.

How Building Permit Renewal Works
When a building permit is nearing or has passed its validity period and construction isn't complete, a renewal application must be submitted to the original issuing authority. This typically requires updated structural drawings reflecting current site conditions, a status report on completed works, and any revised structural calculations if the design has changed.
