Building In Independence Township
Permits
We assemble the application, file it with the Building, Planning and Zoning Department and follow it through.
Water, Sewer, Well And Septic
Some lots here connect to township water and sewer. Others need a well and a septic system, and for those we arrange the county health approvals early.
Lakes And Streams
A lake, stream, pond or river on the lot shapes where the house can sit. We settle that distance with the township before the design takes shape.
Wetlands
We have the lot checked for wetlands before design begins, and handle the township permit if the work comes near one.
While We Are Building
Our crews work within the township’s hours for building noise and keep the site orderly.
