Inspections
Booking an inspection
Inspections are booked against an open permit, so the permit number is the first thing asked for. Call City Hall to schedule, and allow a working day.
Work covered up before it is inspected has to be opened again, at the owner's cost. That is why the framing, rough plumbing and rough electrical inspections all happen before insulation goes in.
