For existing homes and new construction
(see Landscaping Ordinance Information).
Just a reminder that most construction work requires a permit and inspections by the city Building Department. However, let’s take a look at work that does NOT require a permit.
Work that does NOT require a permit
According to the International Residential Code, here’s a list of work that can be done without a permit and that does not require inspections:
- one-story sheds, playhouses and similar buildings that are less than 120 square feet (i.e. 12' X 10'); however, if it is wired with electrical lights or outlets, it will still need an electrical permit
- fences not over 6 feet high
- decks not over 30 inches above the finish ground level
- prefabricated swimming pools that are entirely above the ground and do not exceed 2 feet in depth; however, you must contact Herriman City Building Department for information on fencing requirements - Guidelines for Proper Disposal of Swimming Pool & Hot Tub Water
- portable spa (hot tub) with an electrical cord and plug (not ‘hard-wired’)
- swings and other playground equipment for a residence
- window awnings supported by the wall of the house, which do not project more than 54"
- repair and maintenance of electrical and mechanical systems; however, replacing or adding a new furnace, air conditioner or water heater requires a permit
Also, be aware that ALL retaining walls (whether built with rock, brick, block, masonry, concrete, railroad ties, etc.), regardless of height, require a permit. For information and forms to submit for any permit, see list below.
Payments for permits costing more than $500 must be made by check, and should be made payable to Herriman City. Payments less than $500 can also be made with a Visa, Mastercard or American Express.
