About Catharpin
Premium contracting in Catharpin.
Catharpin is western Prince William County, ZIP 20143, on the rural side of the county toward Route 15 and Catharpin Road. It is not Haymarket's incorporated village and it is not a Gainesville subdivision. The drive from Martinsburg is Route 9 to Leesburg, then Route 15 south.
Building permits are issued by the Prince William County Building Development Division. The division phone is (703) 792-4311. Residential projects are one-family and two-family dwellings and townhouses. The county says a permit is always required for finishing a basement, for an addition, and for removing or altering structural members or altering plumbing, electrical, or heating and air conditioning. Installation or replacement of cabinetry or trim does not require a permit. Replacing existing plumbing fixtures does not, when the supply and the drain, waste, and vent stay as they are.
Zoning approval is a separate counter for exterior work and for a secondary food-preparation area in a basement. An association covenant is not a county permit. Electrical work and gas work are separately licensed trades. Real Elite does not take electrical work. The price is a free written estimate after a site walk.
