Building and Safety Division

Greetings from our Building Official -  Darik Doggett

Welcome to the City of Seal Beach, Building Division's web site.  The Building Division is responsible for safety  standards for the design, construction, materials, use and occupancy, of all buildings and structures within the City.  We also provide plan checking, permitting and inspection services for new construction, additions and remodels  to assure all structures meet or exceed the minimum life safety standards of the codes adopted by the City of Seal Beach.  The division is provided under contract with the engineering and management firm Charles Abbott Associates, Inc. (CAA).

Our goal in presenting this web site is to provide an effective and efficient way to answer frequently asked questions and general information about the Permit process for obtaining building permits and information about standard requirements.  However if you do not find what you are looking for or have further questions, please feel free to contact us at (562) 431-2527 or you can send us an email to BUILDING INFO EMAIL.
