Permits & Site Prep in the Dearborn Heights Area
We have delivered and built for plenty of customers across the Dearborn Heights area. Here is what we generally see for permits and site prep, just to point you in the right direction.
Permit needed over 100 sq ft
A zoning compliance certificate is required before repair, construction, alteration, or modification of premises or structures; the ordinance specifically lists accessory structures under 100 sq ft as work that relates to zoning compliance. A building permit is required before excavation for or construction of any building or structure.
City of Dearborn Heights Building Department · 313-791-3470
The permit details above come from the City of Dearborn Heights. Some Dearborn Heights mailing addresses actually fall under a neighboring township or village with its own rules, so confirm with the office that covers your exact property.
What the City of Dearborn Heights requires
- Setbacks
- Accessory buildings must be to the rear of the principal building and may be in a required rear yard, but no closer than 2 ft to any adjoining side lot line or rear lot line; accessory buildings may not occupy more than 25% of the required rear yard. Detached garages completely to the rear of the dwelling have the same 2 ft side/rear minimums.
- Height & coverage
- Total floor area of all accessory buildings may not exceed 800 sq ft; sheds may not exceed 200 sq ft. Accessory building height is capped at 15 ft measured from floor surface to roof ridge/highest point, with maximum wall height 8 ft. Detached accessory buildings must be at least 15 ft from the principal building unless the building official grants a waiver; garages may be as close as 6 ft measured between roof overhangs.
Foundations & site prep
We set most buildings on a level gravel pad, which is all the majority of sheds and garages need. Larger or permanent structures can call for a concrete slab or a rat wall, a perimeter footing that keeps rodents out and meets code for a permanent foundation. We will walk through what your size and site actually need.
This is just information we are aware of, not the final word. Requirements can be more or less depending on your exact parcel and municipality, so we always advise checking directly with your local office before you build. We are glad to help you figure it out.

Questions About Buildings in Dearborn Heights
Most likely, yes. We deliver within about 150 miles of our Northern Indiana and Southern Michigan shops, which covers most of southern to lower-mid Michigan, Northwest Ohio, and Northeast Indiana. Beyond that we can still deliver with a quote at times. Feel free to check out the Where We Deliver page for details and more information.
Once your building is ready, we bring it to you and set it in place with our Mule, a compact machine that fits through tight or awkward spots with almost no impact to your yard. You just need a reasonably level spot ready beforehand, and our drivers can handle minor grade changes with shims and blocks.
If it's already at one of our locations, usually 7 to 10 days, and often sooner. A custom build typically takes about 3 to 4 weeks, with summer peak season sometimes running 5 to 6 weeks.
Permit rules are set locally, so it comes down to your township, city, or county. As a general pattern, the places that require anything ask for a zoning compliance permit on buildings up to 200 square feet, then a full building permit once you go over 200. Your jurisdiction sets the specifics, so confirm with your local office before you build. We're happy to point you in the right direction.
Yes. We offer rent-to-own through JMAG with 36-month and 48-month terms, no credit check, and just the first month's payment due when you get the building.
No. Many customers order without ever visiting, and we'll walk you through options, pricing, and delivery by phone or email. If you'd like to see buildings in person, you're always welcome at our Adrian or Carleton locations. Reach out anytime.
