What We Do
Permits, handled.
Professionally.
We compile every required document, coordinate with the jurisdiction, and manage the entire approval process, so you can focus on building.
Evergreen Permits is a private residential permit service. We are not a government building department for any jurisdiction in Washington State.
Every project type, one team.
Serving homeowners, contractors, designers, and architects across Washington State. Take a look at all the services we offer and some of the projects we have successfully approved.

STFI Permits
A porch and deck rebuild in Seattle
This STFI permit covered a porch and deck rebuild tied into the home's existing roofline. We prepared the full permit package, coordinated directly with the reviewer, and resolved every comment before it became a delay.
Our role: full permit package preparation and jurisdictional coordination, from submission to issuance.
Interior Remodel Permits
Opening up a Kirkland home for natural light
This interior remodel reshaped the main living space, adding vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows without disturbing the home's structural bones. We documented existing conditions, built the drawing set, and carried the project through plan review to final approval.
Our role: existing-conditions documentation, permit drawings, and plan review management.

New detached structures trigger their own zoning and setback review, checked early so the design never had to change.

Permit Drawings & Site Plans
Turning a sketch into a permit-ready set
Some projects arrive as an idea, not a drawing. We produce what's needed to submit with confidence.
