Additional Notes

Building permits are issued through Sanilac County's Construction & Land Use Department (confirmed on sanilaccounty.gov); a local Land Use/zoning approval from the township must accompany the county building permit application. The township's own domain (bridgehamptontwp.com) did not resolve (DNS failure) during research, so it may be defunct; township officer contact info (Supervisor Leo Sonck, (810) 334-4252; Clerk Mary Bokach; mailing address P.O. Box 83, Carsonville, MI 48419) was sourced from the county's official township page (sanilaccounty.gov/government/townships/bridgehampton.php) rather than a township-run site.

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 — Bridgehampton Township'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.
