Why a plumbing permit takes 14–20 days in Miami-Dade County

Even simple permits often take 6–8 weeks from initial submittal to approval. Florida's SB 102 / Section 553.792 imposes strict review deadlines specifically for Miami-Dade permits, requiring qualifying residential reviewers to complete initial review quickly, with applicants given 10 business days to respond to comments.

What reviewers check on a plumbing submittal

Plumbing review is driven by fixture count and backflow prevention — fixture units against the supply and drain sizing, and the backflow device protecting the potable supply.
