Additional Notes
Confirmed via the city's own website and the Wisconsin DSPS UDC delegated-municipality list (Delegated status). The DSPS PDF lists an older phone number (715-923-0720) for Curt Demlow that differs from the current city website's direct line (715-732-5128; main city hall line 715-732-5120) -- the city website number is used here as more current. No online permit portal was found; building permit applications are PDF downloads submitted in person or by mail to City Hall.
What You Need Before Applying for a Permit
Most building departments ask for the same core package before they'll issue a permit: a completed application naming the property owner and contractor, the contractor's state license number and proof of insurance (general liability, and workers' comp if employees are on the job), a notice of commencement or equivalent recorded filing for larger jobs where the state requires one, and scaled plans or a site plan for anything beyond minor repairs. Roofing, fence, pool, and solar permits typically have their own simplified checklists — City of Marinette's department (above) can confirm exactly what applies to your project.
Why this matters for insurance: permit history is one of the first things an underwriter or adjuster checks. Unpermitted work — a finished basement, an added bedroom, a rebuilt roof — can complicate a claim or even void coverage for that portion of the loss, and it routinely surfaces during a home inspection. Pulling the right permit up front, and keeping the closed-permit record on file, protects both the property's value and its insurability at resale.
