Building Department

The Building Department personnel are responsible for overseeing all building construction within the Town of South Windsor. Connecticut State Building Codes and the State Statutes that regulate building construction are enforced by the building inspectors. All records pertaining to the structures on individual properties are kept in the Department. Questions concerning building additions, alterations, or renovations should be directed to the Building Department. Contact the Building Department when considering construction of a new building or altering an existing structure. We review plans and specifications of proposed construction. Technical support is also provided for property owners and people involved in the building trades. Our staff issues permits and performs inspections during all phases of construction. Call our office to find out if your project requires a permit and/or inspections.
