The San Francisco Building Department typically requires permits to be pulled on all stair repairs. And usually if the repairs total less than 50% of the structure you can pull an over the counter (OTC) permits with no plans. If the repairs are extensive, more than 50%, and if you need to replace the stairs entirely, the Building Department will require plans and drawings be prepared by an engineer or other similar trained draftsperson to present for review and approval. While we are not trained in drawing or drafting ourselves, we can closely work with your engineers to ensure that the best solution is made in regards to repairing or replacing your stairs.
