Forks Township permits
Forks Township bathroom remodeling permits — what to expect.
- Permit fees (residential alterations)
- Forks bills a residential alteration off the contract rather than by the square foot: 1.00% of total construction cost, signed contract required, subject to the Building Code Official's review and approval, plus a 20% administrative fee on the building permit fee and on any re-inspection. Plan review is $0.06 per square foot with a $50 minimum and its own 20% administrative fee. Trades are separate: a plumbing alteration is $30 plus $10 per device, a mechanical alteration is $30 plus $25 for each $1,000 of construction cost, each with a $50 minimum permit fee, and an electrical minor alteration of up to 15 devices is $60. A re-inspection is $50, the Commonwealth education fee is $4.50, and a zoning permit carries a $75 minimum.
- A $45,000 kitchen: 1% of the contract is $450, plus the 20% administrative fee — $540. Plan review on 200 square feet works out to $12, so the $50 minimum applies, $60 with its administrative fee. Add the plumbing alteration at $30 plus $10 per device (about $60 for a sink, dishwasher and ice line), $60 for the electrical work up to 15 devices, and the $4.50 education fee: roughly $725 for the permit set.
- Read from the official Forks Township schedule on September 9, 2026. Residential figures; commercial work is charged differently. Fees change — confirm before you budget.
- Permit review window
- Pennsylvania sets the ceiling, not the township: under the Uniform Construction Code a building code official must grant or deny a residential permit application within 15 business days of the filing date, or the application is deemed approved (34 Pa. Code § 403.63(a)). That drops to 5 business days where the drawings were prepared and certified by a Pennsylvania-licensed design professional, and only a written agreement with the applicant can extend it. This municipality publishes no review standard of its own, so we quote the statute rather than a number nobody has verified — and we file the application and follow it through either way.
Most Forks Township bathroom remodels involving plumbing, electrical or structural changes require a building permit. VM Power Kitchen & Bath pulls permits, schedules inspections and coordinates compliance as part of every design-build contract — you don't navigate the office alone.
