Your experiences with permitting & DIY work in Indiana
Hi everyone. I'm curious what kind of work have you done on your properties and your experiences working with the different building departments around the state.
I was just reading our city code and found a permit exemption for replacing water heaters in 1 & 2 family dwellings as long as the venting and fuel source were identical. I'll have to dig into it to see if that is just an exemption for owner-occupants, but it did pique my interest regarding what work other investors have gotten away with doing themselves.
This is one area I really need to study. Legally, I doubt anyone would bat an eye over a landlord changing out a shower trim kit. Now changing a 3 handle shower valve to a one...I don't know.
