Marin County CalGreen Services

Marin County CalGreen ServicesMarin County Building Department

Our Marin County CalGreen services include checklists, inspections and CalGreen commissioning.

A Marin County CalGreen permit is required for all new residential and commercial construction projects.

Green Building is a whole systems approach to construction and building systems that reduces the impact that our buildings has on our environment. Green building also provides many benefits to the homeowner including long term value, reduced energy and water use, reduced maintenance, and a healthier indoor environment.

Marin County is a majestic and unique jewel of northern California. The county sets a high standard in all areas of development and construction in accordance with the high standards set by the residents. These include Mandatory CalGreen Measures such as the capability for electric vehicle charging, permeable paving and CalGreen Green Tier 1 requirements, among many others.

The county’s adoption of the Marin County CalGreen Tier 1 requirements is another level of obligations that your new home must comply with.

It is important to understand that you are not required to comply with every CalGreen requirement. A CalGreen specialist can help you critically review each time on the checklist and only commit your project to those that are absolutely necessary.

CalGreen Checklist

Marin County Residential Checklist

           Marin County Residential CalGreen Checklist

We are specialists in CalGreen checklists and permits. CalGreen is all we do.

We have developed in-house procedures that allow us to provide your CalGreen permit documents inexpensively and quickly. We have state licensed CalGreen Special Inspectors who are authorized to produce and sign your CalGreen residential or commercial checklist and permit documents.

In addition, we can typically provide your permit documents within two days. We understand every new project has a tight schedule. We will work with you to ensure you have your permit documents on time.

What sets us apart is that we are truly specialists in this field. We carefully review the checklist for your area and only check those items that are mandatory for your project.

It is important to understand that just because the local checklist calls something “mandatory” it does not mean it’s “mandatory” for your project! Your CalGreen Special Inspector can decide what is mandatory for you and thereby limit your construction costs. Moreover, we will deal with your local building department officials to ensure your CalGreen checklist and permit is approved.

CalGreen Commissioning

CalGreen commissioning is required on all new commercial projects over 10,000 square feet. It is important to understand that this requirement does NOT mean you have to pay for a full-blown commissioning process. The California Green Building Standards Code defines what commissioning is required.

Here’s our challenge. Call any specialized commissioning company and get a quote from them. Then call us and get our fee. I can guarantee you will be shocked by the difference. The difference is only paying for what the CalGreen Code requires!
