Foundation work in Carrollton
Carrollton permits every foundation repair, regardless of valuation; each must be designed by a Professional Engineer and gets an inspection on completion, the Foundation Repair page says. The permit fee is paid with the CityServe application, and no flat foundation price is printed; the Building Inspection Fees page, undated, has no such row, though it does list a $125 non-refundable application processing fee and a $50 re-inspection. Carrollton's Codes & Ordinances table shows the 2024 IRC, the related 2024 I-Codes and the 2023 NEC effective 09/01/25 under Ordinances 4265 and 4290, with combined local amendments.
