Which building code applies in Nassau County, FL?

Is Nassau County, FL in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone?

No. Only Miami-Dade and Broward counties are in the HVHZ. Projects in Nassau County, FL still need wind design to the Florida Building Code, and exterior products need Florida Product Approval or local approval.

Does my Nassau County project need a flood zone review?

Nassau County is a coastal county, so many properties are in FEMA flood zones and some fall under coastal construction rules. If yours does, the site plan usually shows the flood zone and elevations, and an elevation certificate may be required.

Do I need a notice of commencement in Nassau County, FL?

Under Florida law, a notice of commencement is required for improvements with a direct contract over $5,000. It is recorded with the clerk of court before the first inspection. Repair or replacement of an existing heating or air conditioning system under $15,000 is exempt.

Can I pull my own permit in Nassau County, FL?

Florida allows property owners to act as their own contractor under the owner-builder exemption, with a signed disclosure statement. The building department explains the rules that apply. We prepare the drawings either way.

Do you prepare drawings for cities in Nassau County, FL?

Yes. We prepare drawings for projects in Fernandina Beach, Callahan, Hilliard and Yulee and every other part of the county. Each city can have its own zoning rules and checklist, so we check them for your address.

Do I need a survey for a site plan in Nassau County, FL?

Often, but not always. Many offices accept an existing survey or recorded plat for small projects, while others ask for a current boundary survey. We tell you what applies before you pay.

Do drawings for Nassau County, FL need to be sealed?

It depends on the project and the jurisdiction. Many residential projects do not require a seal. Where one is required, licensed professional review can be coordinated, subject to the professional's independent review.
