Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a commercial roofing or structural repair permit cost in Bryant, Arkansas?

Bryant, AR does not publish the building permit fee for a $150,000 (12,000 sq ft) commercial roofing or structural repair in a form PermitBasis can confirm, so no total is estimated. Known fees add $75.00. Call Bryant Planning & Development at (501) 943-0488 for a quote.

Does Bryant, AR calculate building permits by square footage or project valuation?

Bryant prices building permits by square footage under roof: $0.14 per sq ft for one- and two-family homes and $0.15 for commercial, industrial and apartments. New-construction electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits are also $0.14 per sq ft each. Bryant does not publish a valuation rate for commercial remodels.

How long does commercial plan review take in Bryant, AR and what does it cost?

Plan review costs 50% of the building permit fee for commercial projects. The city does not publish a plan review turnaround time; ask the permit desk for the current queue when you submit.

Do I need an Arkansas commercial contractor license to pull a permit in Bryant?

Yes, for commercial work of $50,000 or more. Under A.C.A. § 17-25-101, any project other than a single-family residence costing $50,000 or more in labor and materials requires an Arkansas Contractors Licensing Board commercial license, and the building official must see proof of license before issuing the permit. Residential builders and remodelers need an ACLB residential license for jobs over $2,000. Splitting a contract to stay under a threshold is not allowed. Licensed electricians, plumbers and HVACR contractors pull their own trade permits in Bryant.
