Re: porter davis how long to get building permit and site st 2Jul 05, 2017 6:18 pm From what I've been told, a building permit shouldn't take more than a week or so provided your builder submits everything correctly the first time around. The first permit is from the council which takes forever, but a building permit can be had from a surveyor.
