Austin Plans For Permits

c.b. was great from the beginning to the end. After signing a contract to have a building constructed on my property I soon fell into the hands of the city’s bureaucracy! Ack! I am a pretty smart person and an avid DIYer, but this was way beyond my scope. Surveys? Floor Plans? Reviews? Egress? Impervious Coverage Calculations? WHAT??? Yes the city seriously required me to have floor plans for a workshop!!!
Lost and confused I went to the oracle of knowledge… google. After looking at multiple *pricey* looking websites I thought I was out of my league. I called a few places, emailed a few places, waited a week… nothing. I stumbled upon c.b.‘s website which was way more my pace. Information that was in layman’s terms and something I could understand.
I gave him a call and I felt immediate relief. This guy seemed to know his stuff and wasn’t full of crap. I had most of my stuff together and all I needed from him was floor plans. After a few email exchanges, he called and asked me to meet him down at the city to submit my plans for review. Hooray! Progress! He (literally) walked me through the process and went with me to each person I had to speak to. It was a glorious morning!
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It’s rare you find an honest, person who is willing to go above and beyond. 5 stars is far less than what this man deserves.

CB is extremely knowledgeable about the permit process and helped me immensely. I actually tried getting a permit myself and didn’t really know what I was doing. I spent a few days getting bounced around different departments and didn’t really get anywhere.
But CB was able to tell me exactly what to do and who to talk to which helped make the process extremely easy. I got my permit in one day by following his advice.
Thanks CB!

I can’t say enough about CB. He will offer you the personal attention and timely execution you’re looking for. His fee to solve your problems and navigate city hall efficiently and effectively on your behalf will pay for itself many times over. My experience with CB from start to finish was outstanding and if I could give him more stars I would. Consider yourself fortunate to know about CB… good people.

Austin Plans for Permits is a lifesaver. Seriously. I can’t recommend this company highly enough! Our HOA asked for us to get a letter from an architect regarding our decking, and were having a hard time finding an architect that would help us. It was kind of an odd request, and every architect we talked with kind of directed us elsewhere. Finally, we called Austin Plans for Permits, and CB is the most helpful person on the planet. He put us in touch within a week with the right person, who gladly wrote the letter for us. CB must know everyone in Austin.
I can say that I will never consider going with anyone else for my permit /​construction needs. CB is really incredible. If you ever need a reference, please feel free to contact me and I will absolutely vouch for how awesome this company is.

Through causal conversation waiting at the City of Austin to get some plans approved for my store I met C.B. I mentioned we were using a architect the franchise recommends and from there he mentioned how corky the City of Austin can be compared to other cities. I showed him my plans and right away he said there are a lot of things that would cause a delay. He gave me all the names of people to speak to and who is the best to work with. Since we exchanged contact info I decided to give him a call and see if he would be interested in consoling our current group and help get the plans fixed and through the review process.
CB has made some huge headway in a project that has be delayed in all aspects and helped us gain the time lost because of his excellent knowledge of how the City works and how storm through it all. Our architect has been very pleased with his responsiveness and work. Along with that I’m extremely pleased with the delivered promises! He has exceeded even his timeline expectations as well. On top of that he is always been excited about getting this project corrected and through the city for permits. If you have simple or complicated project I would def. turn to him for help in getting the project through the City. He has the knowledge, the connections, the work ethic, and honesty that many so called «professionals» lack. On top of that he brings excitement to the process and keeps you well informed throughout it all.
Trust me you want/​need CB to help you survive the city!!!
Thank you for the hard work CB!

I had to get a City of Austin permit pulled to add a bathroom to a condo in Austin, but I was quickly caught up in the City of Austin bureaucratic quick sand and had no idea how to escape or proceed.
Enter Mr. CB Ellis of Austin Plans for Permits! I ran into CB quite by accident but man, I am so glad that I did. For a very reasonable fee, CB took control of my permit project and in just a few days he had the permit issued, pulled and displayed at my property. Damn — this man is good! And, he knows how to quickly maneuver through the City of Austin maze of paperwork and regulations to get your permit issued. (Go ahead, just try to figure it all out yourself — good luck!).
Honest with integrity (and a very good looking family largely composed of well-​mannered boys — imagine that!), CB is your go-​to guy if you need a permit pulled for a home remodel or construction project. I should add that CB does a lot of commercial permits but he will do small residential permits as well.
Love this guy!
