Additional Notes
Fax 586-784-9153. Building/electrical/plumbing/mechanical inspectors (Dennis LeMieux, Tim Dillon, George Ryan) work part-time and are reached through the Village Office phone above; no dedicated department email or online portal was found on the village's own site (a Document Center hosts downloadable applications). This is a SEPARATE government from Armada Township (item below), which shares the base name but has its own township hall and building department a short distance away — do not merge the two.
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 — Village of Armada'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.
