Building permits:

The building permit or building permit is a complex process that includes the preparation of studies and the issuance of approvals by different bodies and public authorities. In terms of its content, it ensures the quality for the perfect completion of a construction project. As for the process, it requires the partnership and synchronization of engineers of different specialties. Our office is composed of all the required engineering specialties while having the appropriate equipment for the preparation of all the required studies. We fully undertake the process of issuing the building permit, providing a complete and complete solution. The building permit, depending on the content, nature and size of the works, is differentiated into a building permit and the approval of small-scale works.

The minimum required studies for the issuance of a Building Permit differ depending on the type of building and its use. The main studies are:

• Topographical
• Architecture study
• Structural design
• E / M Studies (Water Supply, Sewerage, Heating, Electricity, Air Conditioning, Gas Fuel, Lifting Machines)
• Energy Efficiency Study
• Passive Fire Protection Study
• Active Fire Protection Study
• Time Planning Study
• Budget Project

The cost of a Building Permit varies depending on the size, use of the building and the studies required. The cost of the Building Permit includes the fees of Engineers, the contributions in favor of the State, the Building Service, the Municipality, the IKA and third parties.

Engineers' fees are divided into study fee and supervision fee. With the law for the liberalization of professions, the remuneration of the Engineers is determined by free negotiation with the owner.
For the issuance of the Building Permit, the payment of the Engineers' fees and contributions is required.

Authorized:

The Store Operating License is the final license granted for the creation and installation of a business, issued by the competent body, usually the Municipality or Region. An operating license is required for the establishment of a business, e.g. Doctor's Office, Playground, Kindergarten, Health Interest Store (cafeteria etc), Handicraft etc

Our office specializes in issuing business licenses. We undertake to prepare the necessary studies and certificates for the operating license and provide all the necessary technical advice as well as the start-up of your business. Securing the appropriate operating license is a sequence of actions that without the necessary knowledge can prove to be time consuming.

In fact, most of the problems that arise in the context of issuing an operating license, arise due to the unsuitability of the property. The wrong choice of property can result in delays, large increases in the business installation budget or even the inability to establish the business in the specific property. Therefore, it is understood that the contribution of an engineer is necessary before renting the property, in order to examine the suitability of the property and to budget the cost (if any) required to obtain the property the appropriate specifications set by law. Our office can undertake the above process in parts (eg Directorate of Urban Planning and services of the Engineer) or completed with the service of total withdrawal with the LICENSE IN HAND without your involvement with the process.

Stores of Health Interest (JMC):

For the operation of a new store of sanitary interest in an area that housed another store of different use, it is necessary to obtain the appropriate permission from the competent municipal service. Their license is divided into two stages: The pre-approval of the license and the operating license.

The licensing authorities involved in such a case are the competent service of the respective Municipality, the competent Planning Directorate, the Sanitary Directorate and the Fire Service. Exceptionally, in some areas the advocacy of the Directorate of Archeology is required.

At the Health Care Store you can very often require the simultaneous use of a public gathering room. In any store that is where there are table seats and people stay. Some of the activities that require the issuance of a JMC License by the Municipality are

• Restaurants, Pizzerias, Grill Restaurants, Skewers
• Cafes, Refreshments, Snack Bars, Ouzo
• Hairdressers - Barbers
• Confectionery Stations after Brewery
• Bread Stations
• Grocery Stores, Fruit Shops, Canteens

Workshops - Crafts:

In order to secure the Installation and Operation License of a professional laboratory or a handicraft, it is required to obtain the corresponding license from the Directorate of Development and Industry. The licensing authorities involved in such a case are the Directorate of Environment, the Directorate of Development, the Directorate of Sanitation, and the Fire Service, while the issuance of a building permit by the competent Planning is required in case the above installation takes place in a new building.

Crafts can be installed in specially designed areas called industrial zones, industrial or craft parks. Their license is divided into two stages: The installation license and the operating license.

Laboratories are considered to be facilities that have installed equipment with a total motor power of up to 22 kW and thermal up to 50 kW. The licensing process is about the same as for the craft, with the difference that food laboratories, because they are usually considered low nuisance, can also be installed in General Dormitory areas.
