Restoration in Pine Hills
Painting, flooring, drywall patching, glass replacement in existing frames and temporary tarps or boarding need no permit, says Orange County's Storm Repair and Permit Information page. Roof, structural, window and door, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, fence, accessory structure and pool repairs do. Pine Hills is unincorporated, so it falls to the county office, although none of the county's pages names it. For a Substantial Damage or Improvement letter, owners email FloodPermits_Help@ocfl.net; no 50 percent figure is printed.
The county's fee directory for fiscal year 2026-2027, effective 10/1/26, charges a residential one- or two-family permit $26.00 up to and including $1,000, then $4.00 for each added $1,000 or fraction. Re-inspection is $76.00. Demolition permits cost $7.00 for every 25,000 cubic feet or part thereof, between a $26.00 minimum and a $412.00 maximum. Permitting Services works from the 1st Floor of the Orange County Administration Center, 201 S. Rosalind Ave, (407) 836-5550, and files go in through Fast Track.
The storm page says the office is open daily from 8:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m., while the Division page says in-building services are by appointment for informational meetings. The county follows the current version of the Florida Building Code and doesn't print a year. Pine Hills has a 1980 median year built in the ACS, and FEMA's A and AE zones reach its border. After a leak, new flooring and patched drywall need no permit here, while plumbing and electrical permits come out in 24 hours on a compliant application.
