Oregon Permitting Services

Oregon's permitting process for manufactured homes involves multiple agencies, specific documentation requirements, and timelines that can derail a project if not managed properly. 3-A Construction, LLC has navigated this process thousands of times across every county in the state. We handle placement permits, building permits, DEQ septic permits, electrical permits, plumbing permits, and any other approvals required for your specific project. This is one of the most valuable services we offer, and it is included in every full installation project.

Every manufactured home installation in Oregon requires a placement permit from the county building department. This permit application requires a professional site plan showing the home location, setbacks from property lines and easements, utility connections, driveway access, and septic or sewer locations. We prepare these site plans in-house using GPS survey data and county GIS records, ensuring they meet the specific format and content requirements of your county.

Beyond the placement permit, your project may require additional permits depending on the scope of work. Septic system permits are issued by Oregon DEQ. Electrical permits are required for service connections and panel installations. Plumbing permits cover water and sewer connections. If you are building a new driveway that connects to a county road, you may need an approach permit. We track every permit requirement for your project and ensure nothing is missed.

County-specific requirements are one of the biggest sources of confusion for homeowners. What is required in Marion County may differ from Linn County, Jefferson County, or any other jurisdiction. Setback distances, fire safety requirements, road frontage standards, flood zone regulations, and design overlay districts all vary. Our experience working in every Oregon county means we know these local nuances and can anticipate requirements before they become problems.

We also coordinate all required inspections throughout the construction process. Foundation inspections, plumbing rough-in inspections, electrical inspections, septic system inspections, and final occupancy inspections all have specific timing requirements and pass/fail criteria. We schedule each inspection at the right stage of construction and are present on site to address any questions the inspector may have. Our goal is to pass every inspection on the first visit.
