Frequently Asked Questions
What is residential electrical permit remediation?
Residential electrical permit remediation is the process of fixing unresolved or failed permits related to electrical work in a home. At Daven Electric Corp., our licensed residential electrician team specializes in identifying code violations, updating outdated work, and closing out permits with the city.
Here’s what it typically includes:
- Researching existing permits and violations
- Performing a full code compliance inspection
- Developing a remediation plan
- Making necessary electrical repairs or upgrades
- Coordinating with the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB)
- Submitting paperwork to close the permit
If unlicensed work was done in the past or your electrical system doesn’t meet current codes, our residential electrical contractor team steps in to bring everything up to standard. We work directly with building authorities and inspectors to ensure your home is safe, legal, and inspection-ready. It’s about getting your home in the clear—and doing it the right way.
How do I know if my electrical permit has issues?
There are several ways to check if your electrical permit is still open, expired, or non-compliant. At Daven Electric Corp., we help you figure that out quickly.
Look for these signs:
- You received a violation notice from the city or utility company.
- A previous contractor started work but didn’t complete the final inspection.
- You’re selling or renovating and an open permit appears during a title search.
- A home inspection flagged unpermitted electrical work.
We also recommend checking the NYC DOB’s online permit portal or contacting your local building department. Our residential electrician team can handle all the research if you’re unsure.
Our residential electrical contractor will assess your records, visit your property, and give you a clear breakdown of what’s needed. We’ll let you know exactly where you stand and how to fix it.
What are the risks of not resolving electrical permit issues?
Ignoring unresolved electrical permits can lead to serious problems. As a licensed residential electrical contractor, we’ve seen how costly it gets when issues are left unaddressed.
Here’s what can happen:
- The city may fine you.
- The permit stays open indefinitely, complicating future renovations.
- Home sales can be delayed or fall through due to title issues.
- Insurance claims can be denied if damage results from unapproved work.
- The city may require tearing out unpermitted electrical work.
Our residential electrician can inspect your system and review your permit history if you’re unsure about your status. Fixing the problem now can prevent legal headaches, financial penalties, and even safety hazards down the line.
Our team at Daven Electric Corp. helps homeowners avoid these risks by providing full electrical permit remediation, so their homes stay compliant, protected, and ready for whatever comes next.
How long does electrical permit remediation usually take?
The timeframe for permit remediation can vary, but we always aim to move fast. At Daven Electric Corp., our residential electrical contractor team breaks down the timeline for each home so you know what to expect.
Here’s a general idea:
- Permit Research & Violation Assessment – 1 to 3 days
- Inspection & Plan Development – 2 to 5 days
- Repairs & Upgrades – Depends on the scope (can be same-day or up to 1–2 weeks)
- Re-inspection & Final Filing – Typically 3 to 7 days depending on DOB availability
Altogether, most residential electrical permit remediation jobs are completed within 1 to 3 weeks.
Our residential electrician will keep you updated every step of the way. If there are delays due to special equipment, access issues, or inspector scheduling, we’ll handle the coordination and keep the process moving. Your time matters—and so does doing the job right.
How much does electrical permit remediation cost?
The cost of residential electrical permit remediation depends on several factors, including the complexity of the violations, the amount of work required to meet current code, and the size of the property.
At Daven Electric Corp., we offer transparent pricing based on:
- Initial research and DOB records review
- Required electrical inspections
- Labor and materials for electrical corrections
- Filing fees or penalties (if applicable)
Typical price range:
- Minor fixes (missing inspection, documentation only): $500–$1,000
- Moderate violations (minor repairs): $1,000–$3,000
- Extensive updates (wiring, panel upgrades): $3,000+
Our licensed residential electrical contractor will walk you through your specific needs and provide a detailed estimate before any work begins. No surprises, just honest answers. When you hire a qualified residential electrician from our team, you’re getting expert help and peace of mind at a fair price.
