Does this work need a permit in Wake County?
Yes, for structural work. Foundation repair is load-bearing work; a slab or patio that carries nothing usually isn't. That's North Carolina law (G.S. 160D-1110), the same in every permit office — the statewide guide explains what it means for the permit records.

Source: TarSignal, from North Carolina public building permit records, data through October 29, 2026. Refreshed nightly. Counts include every permit type a jurisdiction files — trade permits (electrical, plumbing, mechanical) as well as building permits — so one project can appear more than once. Values are what the applicant declared, where the jurisdiction records one. We keep improving how we collect each office's permits, so a count that steps up suddenly usually means more complete records, not more construction.
