Will I need a permit for a demolition project in Syracuse?
The city of Syracuse requires that you obtain a demolition permit for both residential and commercial demolition projects. Permit applications are available at:
City Hall Commons
201 E Washington St, Room 101
Syracuse, NY 13202
The following items are required in order to obtain a permit for demolition:
- A copy of the hazardous materials survey, proving the absence of asbestos and other hazardous materials
- An asbestos abatement letter and Air Monitoring Certificate
- Your demolition contractors insurance certificate, listing the city of Syracuse as additionally insured, along with their proof of workers compensation insurance
- If necessary, a hydrant permit (Contact the Department of Water)
- Onondaga County Health Certificate (Contact the Onondaga County Health Department)
- A project site review (Contact the Office of Zoning Administration)
Who should I hire for my demolition project?
Generally speaking, the contractor you hire should be experienced in the work and licensed and insured to handle the job. In some states, you only need a license if the total project cost is greater than a certain dollar amount, and some states simply require contractors to be registered. If your state requires a license, always make sure the contractor you hire has the proper licensing. Our state-by-state contractor license guide is an excellent tool. You can learn your state’s licensing laws and make sure a specific contractor's license is up-to-date. If a contractor's license number is not listed on their website or social media, quote sheets or contracts should show the contractor’s license number on the first page. If you don’t see it, this is a red flag. (Find out the other red flags!)
Never be afraid to ask a contractor for their license number, and make sure you understand the importance of having a bonded and insured contractor, too.
