Garages, sheds, and accessory dwellings are property expansion, filed as their own permits and often followed by service work. Tradewinds observes them in county permit records.
A garage build is a large outbuilding spend that usually pulls its own electrical service run.
An accessory dwelling is a second full set of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work on one parcel.
Smaller structures still mark a homeowner investing in the property, and they cluster with outdoor living work.
Powering a new structure means a separate electrical filing, often weeks after the structure permit.
