Jacksonville Market: Permits, Codes, and Timing

Quality firms book 2-3 months out; during May-Oct hurricane prep season, add another month.
Where work happens by district:
- Southside/Deerwood: Financial and healthcare offices. Firms here know AHCA medical compliance and data center requirements.
- Downtown/Brooklyn: Historic building specialists who navigate preservation rules (review can add 3-4 weeks).
- Port/Westside Industrial: Warehouse and logistics pros familiar with heavy loading, dock work, and industrial zoning.
Summer humidity affects drywall curing—add 48hrs. Verify Florida contractor license through DBPR. Coastal projects require flood elevation certificates before permitting.
Why Jacksonville is Unique
City of Jacksonville Development Services reviews commercial permits in 4-6 weeks (add 2 weeks for Beaches jurisdiction). Florida's hurricane codes mean impact-resistant windows, elevated equipment, and flood compliance—budget 10-15% extra vs inland Florida. Contractors are ~70% open shop. Book quality firms 2-3 months out, especially May-Oct (pre-hurricane prep season).
