Three permitting authorities cover Guilford County

New construction and additions anywhere in Guilford County have to comply with the North Carolina State Building Code, adopted and amended statewide by the NC Building Code Council under the Office of the State Fire Marshal. That part doesn't change based on where in the county you're building.

What does change is who issues your permit. Greensboro and High Point are large enough to run their own municipal building departments, separate from the county. According to the Guilford County Inspections Department, the county handles unincorporated areas along with Jamestown, Oak Ridge, Pleasant Garden, Sedalia, Stokesdale, Summerfield, and Whitsett through contractual agreements.

Statewide code authority from the NC Building Code Council. Local permitting jurisdiction confirmed through the Guilford County Inspections Department.
