Medford is in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, established in 1630 and home to roughly 59,500 people.

An addition always needs a permit, and usually more than one.
780 CMR only exempts minor finish work and small detached structures. Anything that changes the footprint, cuts into a load-bearing wall, alters a means of egress or touches the mechanical systems requires a building permit — typically alongside electrical, plumbing and gas permits. As your licensed contractor we file all of them and book the inspections.
For additions & remodeling work in the City of Medford, the filing goes to Medford's building and inspectional services department. As a Massachusetts Registered Home Improvement Contractor (HIC #196540) we pull the permit in our name, book the inspections and meet the inspector on site — you never have to take a day off for it. Requirements do change, so we confirm the current position with Medford's office before any work starts.
