Everything You Need To Know About Your NYC Renovation Approval Package

Are you planning a renovation project in New York City but feeling overwhelmed by the approval process? Look no further than Star Renovations NY. As a design/build firm with over 20 years of industry experience, we handle all aspects of renovation projects under one roof.

From architectural drawings and management approval process to necessary permits and inspections, Star Renovations NY makes the approval process as seamless and stress-free as possible.

The Submission Package

The first step in the approval process is submitting a comprehensive package known as the alteration agreement package. This should include, but is not limited to:

Depending on your project needs, you may also be required to submit electrical letters and probing for wall breakdowns or expansions.

With the team at Star Renovations, clients don’t need to worry about any of this. We handle the full submission package from start to finish. With our years of experience, we’ve seen it all, so we know exactly how to respond when unexpected obstacles stand in the way of project completion.

The Approval Process

Once the package is submitted, our team handles all communication with the building architect and engineer until the concept is approved. We’ll handle all correspondence and create additional plans if necessary to comply with building codes and requirements. Star Renovations NY also has relationships with many building management teams around NYC, making it easier and more efficient for clients to get approval. 

The Necessary Permitting

After the board and building management approve the contract, Star Renovations NY works with the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) for the plan approvals and permits. This process typically takes about 30 days, depending on the scope of work. Once the permitting is complete, the team can start the renovation.

The Inspections

Every building has a set of inspections that they’ll note, and it’s our job to ensure that either the building superintendent or engineer inspects each project milestone before signing off. All these required inspections are outlined in the initial approval process, so clients are always informed at every stage of their project.
