Building permits

Residents planning to remodel, build or add on to any structure must first obtain a permit from the Springboro Building/Zoning Department.

This includes the construction of decks, fences, patio covers, enclosures, accessory buildings, installation of irrigation systems and the like. Any remodeling to existing houses such as basements or an unfinished area in a home requires building plans to be filed with the city along with a building application.

Pick up an applications at the City Building or download at www.ci.springboro.oh.us. Double fees are charged for work completed without a permit and some work may need to be removed and redone.

It is very important to apply for the appropriate permit prior to work being started. Problems have developed when residents put their house on the market without proper inspection records on file with the Building Department. Contact the Building/ Zoning Department, 937-7489791, with questions.
