If it was just doing some painting, fixing walls etc. you do not need a permit. You probably would need permits for doing major electrical work, plumbing etc. so that they can send someone to your house to inspect it, making sure it is up to code. Each town, village,or city has there own way of dealing with permits. Just more or less a racket, just so they can get there money, and saying they inspected it. If you know somebody, and they know you know what you are doing, sometimes they won't even inspect the work. They are happy to take your money though. It will have to be inspected though if you do not have any connections, to make sure that the work is safe, and will not cause a fire etc..Good Luck..

I would of went 2'4" from each wall made marks and find the center of the 2 marks. Basically he's scaling down the room. P.S. He's still a HACK for his lino vid = ) when you measure a room wall to wall w/ a measuring tape you’re kinda guessing because the tape goes up the wall a little and u might be 1/8 off, so what he’s doing is more accurate but I wouldn’t go 3′ from each wall when the room is about 4’10″.

Some areas on the perimeter are sometimes very damp. I can't tell if its from the walls or thru the floor. Before I tear walls down, I need to eliminate the "thru-the floor" possibility. Q: Can ceramic floors installed straight on cement "sweat" on up thru to the point of getting very damp/wet?

Why not just measure the length of the wall and while the tape is still laid out, find the halfway mark? I'm not a professional tiler, but this guy is making hard work of a very simple job.....
