Remodeling in Delray Beach
Kitchens, bathrooms, tile, flooring, drywall and painting across Delray Beach and Palm Beach County — with the permit route and the association rules handled as part of the schedule rather than discovered halfway through.
Permits and approvals in Delray Beach
Delray's code is written broadly: a permit is required for the construction, alteration, modification, repair or change of use of every private building or structure, or any appurtenance attached to one. In practice that means a kitchen or bathroom remodel is a permitted job here, and we confirm the specific scope with the Building Division before starting.
The counter runs Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., just north of the main City Hall entrance.
The rules that apply across the whole service area — the county permit application, the hurricane code and the condominium requirements — are set out on the service areas page rather than repeated here.

What we do in Delray Beach
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need a permit to remodel a kitchen or bathroom in Delray Beach?
- Delray's code is written broadly: a permit is required for the construction, alteration, modification, repair or change of use of every private building or structure, or any appurtenance attached to one. In practice that means a kitchen or bathroom remodel is a permitted job here, and we confirm the specific scope with the Building Division before starting.
- Anything specific to Delray Beach I should know?
- The counter runs Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., just north of the main City Hall entrance.
- Who issues the permit for work in Delray Beach?
- City of Delray Beach — Building Division, at 100 NW 1st Avenue, Delray Beach FL 33444, 561-243-7200. Every municipality in this service area runs its own building department with its own requirements, which is why we confirm scope with the right one before quoting rather than assuming the county rule applies.
- Does the hurricane code change the job in Delray Beach?
- Delray Beach sits in Palm Beach County, which is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone — that zone is Broward and Miami-Dade only. It is still a Wind-Borne Debris Region, so impact-rated windows and doors are required, but not the specific HVHZ product approvals enforced a few miles south. It is a real difference in what can be specified, and it is worth knowing before you buy a window.
