Michigan pool permit requirements
The state-level rules your drawings are checked against. Cities and counties can add local amendments, so send the jurisdiction with your enquiry.
- Residential code

- Pool barriers
- Residential barriers follow the 2015 ISPSC Section 305 referenced from the 2015 Michigan Residential Code, enforced by the local building department, which may add pool ordinances.
- Contractor licensing

Frequently Asked
Which residential code edition applies to Michigan pool permits right now?
The 2015 Michigan Residential Code. The 2021 edition was filed in 2025 but stayed by the Michigan Court of Claims. We confirm the edition in force for your jurisdiction before drawings are issued.
When does a Michigan public pool need a licensed engineer?
EGLE requires a construction permit before a public pool is built or altered. Plans must be prepared by a Michigan-licensed engineer or architect when total project cost exceeds $15,000, and a local building permit is still required.
Are your Michigan pool plans sealed by a Michigan-licensed engineer?
Yes. A Professional Engineer licensed in Michigan reviews the package, takes responsible charge and applies their seal. You receive a submission-ready set for your Michigan jurisdiction.
