Yes, basement finishing in Omaha/Douglas County requires a building permit. If your project includes electrical, plumbing, or mechanical work, those will need separate permits as well. We handle all permit coordination as part of our service.

Any basement bedroom requires a code-compliant egress window for emergency exit. The window must have a minimum opening of 5.7 sq ft, with a minimum width of 20 inches and height of 24 inches. The sill height cannot exceed 44 inches from the floor. We handle egress window installation and ensure full code compliance.
