Residential Permits

Welcome to the online building permit application process!

As Saanich continues to improve and streamline the Building Permit process, Demolition and Plumbing work can be included in your Building Permit application, eliminating the need for separate Demolition or Plumbing permits!

The residential building permit process has been optimized through the launch of five digital submission portals, see Apply Now! This eliminates paper-based applications, making processes more convenient, reliable and efficient. 

 Please note: a separate Building Permit application is still required FOR EACH STRUCTURE. 

Select the permit type you are applying using the navigation buttons below.
