Missouri-Side Kansas City Home Remodeling

The Remodel Co. remodels kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and custom tile across the Missouri side of the Kansas City metro: eastern Jackson County, Cass County, and the Northland. Our office is in Kansas City’s Northland, and we pull permits city by city, from Lee’s Summit to Platte City.

How remodeling permits work on the Missouri side

Missouri doesn’t issue a statewide general contractor license. Instead, each city sets its own contractor licensing and permit rules, and its own building department inspects the work.

On the Missouri side, the rules for your remodel depend on your city, not the state, so your contractor has to know each building department individually.

In practice, that means:

  • City licenses. We hold a City of Liberty contractor license (#LIC-10-25-0038) and register with each city we work in.
  • City permits and inspections. Moving plumbing, adding circuits, finishing a basement, or changing a home’s footprint needs a permit from your city, with inspections at each stage. We pull the permits and schedule the inspections; you don’t visit City Hall.
  • Older homes in the Northland and Independence. Many homes near Liberty Square, in North Kansas City, and in Independence date from the early 1900s to the 1950s. Updating wiring and plumbing behind the walls is usually part of the plan, so we price it up front instead of discovering it mid-project.
  • Clay soil. Much of the Missouri side sits on clay that moves with the seasons. That’s one reason every shower we build goes on the HydroBlok waterproof board system with a pre-made, pre-sloped pan.
