Quick Answer
Yes — HVAC and water-heater replacements in Colliers typically require a mechanical permit and inspection under Brooke County’s enforcement of the West Virginia State Building Code. Local fees range from $35–$60 for water heaters and $70–$95 for HVAC systems. Honest Fix handles all permit filings, scheduling, and closures so homeowners never have to contact the county office.
Colliers’ winding roads and steep lots between Eldersville and Harmon Creek mean many homes sit on foundations where venting and condensate routing can be tricky. Older gas furnaces and shared flues remain common in houses built before 1980. Because Colliers is unincorporated, Brooke County enforces mechanical permitting to ensure proper exhaust clearance, combustion air access, and electrical safety.
All Colliers mechanical work is regulated through the Brooke County Building Department. Once Honest Fix installs your HVAC or water-heater system, county inspectors check vent terminations, gas-line sizing, bonding, and condensate disposal. These reviews confirm both manufacturer and code compliance. Honest Fix submits, tracks, and closes every permit—homeowners never need to drive to Wellsburg or call for updates.
