A Concierge Process,
Built Around You
From the moment you reach out to the day your Certificate of Occupancy is issued, Elite Permits coordinates the permits we're hired to handle. One team, one point of contact, fewer surprises.

The Elite Permits Process
Five straightforward steps from project submission to approved permit.
We handle every detail in between.
Submit Your Project
Tell us about your project in minutes. Share your plans, project scope, and jurisdiction. No lengthy forms - just the essentials we need to get moving.
- Project plans & documents
- Property address & jurisdiction
- Scope of work & trade types
- Preferred timeline
Next-Business-Day Proposal
Within one business day, you'll receive a clear proposal with transparent pricing and a realistic timeline. No hidden fees, no surprises.
- Clear fee summary
- Projected timeline
- Scope of services
- Dedicated coordinator assigned
We Handle the Permits You Hire Us For
Once you tell us which permits you need processed, your dedicated coordinator prepares, reviews, and submits those applications. We focus on getting the application right the first time so it moves through review without avoidable rejections. Note: we don't determine the full scope of permits your project requires - that comes from your team and design professionals.
- Complete document preparation
- Application submittal
- Building department liaison
- First-submission accuracy focus
Active Follow-Up & Corrections
We coordinate processing and any correction requests directly with your team - keeping the permit moving while you focus on revenue-generating work instead of chasing a building department.
- Daily status monitoring
- Correction response & resubmittal
- Inspection scheduling assistance
- Real-time updates to you
Permit Issued & Project Complete
Your approved permit is delivered and ready to post. We stay with you through final inspections and Certificate of Occupancy - the job isn't done until you're fully closed out.
- Permit delivery
- Final inspection coordination
- Certificate of Occupancy support
- Project closeout confirmation
Two Ways We Can Help
Whether you need standard full-service permit management or the fastest
possible path using our private provider license, we have you covered.
Standard Permitting
We manage the full permit process through the local building department - applications, follow-up, corrections, and inspection scheduling assistance. Best for projects where standard municipal timelines are acceptable.
- Full-service application & submittal
- Building department relationship management
- Correction & resubmittal handling
- Inspection scheduling assistance
- Permit posting & closeout
Private Provider
Under Florida Statute 553.791, we conduct an independent plan review before the project goes to the building department. Pre-reviewed projects are eligible for shorter statutory turnaround timeframes at the department, and our review minimizes rejections - both factors typically result in faster overall approval than going through standard review alone.
- Independent plan review in days
- Next-day inspections available
- Multi-licensed inspectors
- Virtual inspection options
- One-party threshold & PP services
Everything Included, Nothing Hidden
Every project comes with our full suite of support services - no add-ons, no surprises.
“We have used Elite Permits since 2021, and they have always delivered amazing service. They shave weeks off the project, and the inspectors have tons of experience. Best of all is being able to schedule an inspection down to the hour — incredible.”
“I've had a great experience working with Elite Permits in Ft. Myers. Cortney Zaccagnino has been extremely helpful in navigating the permitting process right from the very beginning to final inspection.”
