In this mailing ZIP, 59.2% of housing units date from before 1980, so pipe age belongs in your first description. Your restoration company handles water extraction and drying around the repair, so tell it what the plumber found when you call.

Does the Crofton Civic Association Handle Repair Permits?

No, repair permits for a Crofton home go to the Anne Arundel County Department of Inspections and Permits, at 2664 Riva Road in Annapolis. The Crofton Civic Association board runs a tax district, known as a Special Community Benefit District, and not a town. The permit office follows county limits, and the mailing ZIP 21114 does not change that.

The county Permit Center takes building and trade applications. Your restoration company checks the scope of your water damaged drywall repair with that office, including a wall you share with a neighbor.
