Building Permits

The Building Services Department issues building permits for local municipalities within the County of Lambton, except for the City of Sarnia and the Municipality of Lambton Shores.

Building permits are required for:

New structures (dwellings, garages, carports, etc.)
Renovations to existing structures
Additions to existing structures
The demolition of any structure
Swimming pools

Fencing for pools and yards varies by municipality, please check with our department for the fencing requirements.

Free standing structures that are smaller than 108 square feet do not require a building permit but must comply with the zoning by-laws of the local municipality with respect to such things as setbacks from property line, height, etc.
