About Permit Finder

Permit Finder is a free directory of building permit information for the Indianapolis metro area and central Indiana. We organize permit requirements, fees, timelines, and office information for every jurisdiction so homeowners and contractors can find what they need in one place.

The Problem

Every construction project needs permits, but every city, town, and county has different rules. Finding the right information usually means:

• Searching through government websites
• Calling permit offices and waiting on hold
• Asking a contractor who may not know the latest rules
• Guessing at fees and timelines

Our Solution

We research and organize permit information for every jurisdiction in the area. Each jurisdiction page includes:

• All permit types with fees and timelines
• Required documents for each permit type
• Office hours, phone numbers, and online portal links
• Local permit expediters who can help with the process
