Foundation work in Comstock Park
Comstock Park is not a city with its own hall: its permits come from Alpine Township (5255 Alpine Ave NW, 616-784-1262), whose Building & Property Maintenance department posts a plumbing permit application, and from Plainfield Charter Township (616-364-8466) for the part inside that township. Of its 10,306 residents, 40.0 percent live in homes built before 1980, and the median value is $216,600. Comstock Park sits in Kent County, EPA radon Zone 2.
Anyone taking $600 or more for the work needs a LARA license. The current code is the 2015 residential code, and footing depth is 42 inches below actual grade. Northview is 3.7 miles away, Walker 5.2. Because two townships share the address area, confirm with the township that covers your parcel before you apply, then confirm the contractor's state license on the lookup. The 18-month LARA complaint window runs from completion, so date your photographs, and ask each contractor which craft the state license lists.
