If your St. Augustine property has permits that were pulled but never finalized and have since lapsed, Palma Building Solutions resolves it: we pull the St. Johns County record, confirm exactly what you're dealing with, and coordinate reactivating or re-permitting the work, completing the missing inspections, and reaching final sign-off - through a network of independently licensed Florida engineers and contractors.

Work inside the City of St. Augustine is permitted by the city's Planning and Building Department, while unincorporated St. Johns County permits online through the Accela Citizen Access portal, so the first step is confirming which authority holds your record. Both adopt the Florida Building Code, and under Florida Statute 553.791 a licensed private provider can perform plan review and inspections. The nation's oldest city has a large historic district, so older-structure review is a routine part of the process here.
St. Augustine is an Atlantic-coast market on the Matanzas River and Intracoastal, so oceanfront and riverfront parcels sit in FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas and the wind-borne debris region. FEMA recently redrew St. Johns County's flood maps for the first time in 14 years, and the county's CRS Class 5 rating earns flood-insurance discounts, so base-flood elevation and the substantial-improvement rule frequently shape a project. Storm and flood work is where open permits, expired permits, and unpermitted repairs surface, and where Palma's coordination saves the most time.
Palma pulls the St. Johns County record, confirms the exact issue, and coordinates the fix - reactivating or re-permitting the work, completing the missing inspections, and reaching final sign-off - through licensed Florida pros, from first call to final sign-off. Start with a free property check.
