Frequently Asked Questions

What is a building occupancy?

 

The Florida Building Code classifies every building by its use, for example assembly, business, educational or mercantile. The occupancy sets the requirements for exits, fire protection, structure and systems.

 

What is a change of occupancy?

 

Changing how a building is used, such as retail to restaurant or warehouse to church. It brings the building into review against the new use, and we tell you early what it will take.

 

Do you do tenant build-outs?

 

Yes, for offices, medical suites, restaurants and retail spaces, with the structural and MEP drawings the permit needs.

 

Where do you work?

 

Lee, Collier, Charlotte and Sarasota counties, from Cape Coral, Fort Myers and Naples to Bonita Springs, Punta Gorda and the islands.
