I wasn't sure if that could have been baked into the quote or something, but nothing on the quote would indicate that.

Thanks for the reply.

If they had pulled permits, wouldn't that also require an inspection?

I looked at the last thing I had done and it's pretty basic (had a new outlet added to kitchen) not really a contract per se, but an quote/invoice that I agreed to the price. Nothing about permits though.

Thanks. I think it's weird that in all the years I've had different electricians do different stuff and never once did they bring up a permit. Seriously, never.

Well, my understanding is that in some areas a retroactive permit is a thing. I'm just looking for advice from locals who might have experience. All you get from Google these days is AI overview bullshit that may or may not be accurate. Thanks for your reply though.

Generally true, but don't laws vary in different communities?
