Speed up your commercial construction project in New Orleans with Permit Place. We specialize in navigating the City Department of Safety & Permits (DSP). From planning and engineering to building and occupancy—your project moves forward without administrative delays.
Our courier service picks up permit packets or documents from your office and delivers them directly to DSP division counters (or vice versa). In a city where Downtown traffic and limited counter hours are real constraints, this saves valuable days.
We perform comprehensive research on city requirements: zoning compliance, floodplain criteria, mechanical/electrical mandates, fees, and timelines. You receive a detailed report with DSP processes, permit scopes, and target submission dates.
We oversee the entire permit process from start to finish: packet assembly, submission via One Stop App or in-person, city liaison, comment management, inspection coordination, and final “Ready to Issue” guidance.
Our team has managed office build-outs in the CBD, hospitality permits in the French Quarter, and medical renovations Uptown. We work with all types of commercial projects, including retail, restaurants, industrial and more.
We have deep familiarity with Safety & Permits divisions: Plan Review, Building, Electrical/Mechanical, Zoning, and Special Events. We navigate the workflows both online and in‑person.
Our portal provides real-time status updates, document receipts, and communication logs. You never wonder, "Where’s my permit?" Your dedicated account manager is also just a call or email away.
By submitting complete packets at the right time and following DSP’s preferred format, we reduce rejection loops and help move projects to issuance faster—especially crucial when backlogs are reported to stretch weeks.
Avoid getting stuck in the city’s permit backlog. Let our New Orleans team manage your project’s permits from start to finish — with speed and local expertise.
Our New Orleans permit expediters handle every part of the process — from research to final approvals.
We’ve helped hundreds of companies streamline their permit approvals in New Orleans and across the country.
Simple interior or non-structural permits can get issued same-day via One Stop App. However, full commercial permits often experience 6–12+ weeks of review time, particularly when DSP’s backlog is elevated.
DSP does not have a formal fast-track tier, but timely submissions during low-traffic windows, clean & compliant packet builds, and use of One Stop App can greatly reduce hold-ups—especially when backed by a professional expeditor.
Yes — Permit Place is a national commercial permit expediting firm. We support projects throughout Louisiana and across the U.S. If you have multiple locations, we can centralize and streamline the entire permitting process.
