Fees are charged on the value your jurisdiction assigns to the work — many use ICC square-footage valuation tables or your contract price, whichever is greater. If the assigned value is higher than your contract, the actual fee will be higher too.

Estimate only. Confirm with the Cocoa Beach building department before applying.
