Foundation Repair

You need to obtain a building permit for all foundation repairs.

We are pleased to offer a new, streamlined review process for foundation repairs.
Specific application items will be reviewed only at inspection, not at the time of application review. An explanation of the requirements for inspection review is included in the application package.

Foundation repair refers to both internal structural bracing as well as exterior damp-proofing. Foundations for all buildings and structures must be designed by a professional architect or a professional engineer licensed in Saskatchewan.

To Apply

  1. Complete the Foundation Repair Permit Application Package and ensure your application contains all required information and documents. Incomplete submissions will not be accepted. The project package may be updated at any time, be sure to check back to this web page for the most current version.
  2. The application must be signed by the legal owner of the property as well as the applicant.
  3. If applicable, contact SaskPower for inspections and permits for gas or electrical work.
  4. Submit your application by email to permits@regina.ca. The City will review your application to ensure it meets all building, heritage and zoning, regulations and/or bylaws. 

Once your application is approved, you will receive an email inviting you to pick up your permit and advising you of the permit fee. Your permit is not issued until you have paid the fee and picked it up.

Why do I need a permit?

Provincial Legislation and City Bylaws hold the property owner responsible for meeting building codes and regulations. Completing City of Regina permits helps property owners comply with their responsibility to ensure buildings are safe, habitable structures under Provincial Legislation.
