The Building Services Department issues building permits for local municipalities within the County of Lambton, except for the City of Sarnia and the Municipality of Lambton Shores.
Building permits are required for:
- New structures (dwellings, garages, carports, etc.)
- Renovations to existing structures
- Additions to existing structures
- The demolition of any structure
- Swimming pools
Fencing for pools and yards varies by municipality, please check with our department for the fencing requirements.
