Foundation repair in Glendale is spelled out on a single city permit sheet, and that sheet is strict about who can pull the permit.
Glendale's permit sheet
Glendale's permit sheet says foundation repair, beams and straightening included, needs a building permit, with more permits possible if a sump crock or pump is part of the job [1]. The city won't issue a one- or two-family permit to a contractor without state Dwelling Contractor and Dwelling Contractor Qualifier credentials [1].
