Additional Notes

The Village of Eastman holds delegated UDC (Uniform Dwelling Code) authority per the WI DSPS 'Municipalities with Delegated Authority' list (delegation code 12121, status 'Delegated'), but DSPS's own contact/inspector fields for this entry are blank -- no named UDC building inspector could be confirmed for the village. No dedicated village website was found (townofeastman.com is the separate Town of Eastman's site). Clerk name and phone sourced from Crawford County's official 2025-2026 County Directory PDF (crawfordcountywi.gov). Village President is listed there as Pat Joy, 608-874-4230, 109 Du Charme Street, Eastman, WI 54626. Recommend calling to confirm current building-permit process and any contracted inspector.

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 Eastman'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.
