Job-site Inspection Visits
You will need to request on-site inspections at various stages of the construction process to make certain the work conforms to the codes. It is important not to cover your work until it has been inspected by the City. Inspection approvals will be recorded by the building inspector on the inspection job card. It is also important to have the plans and the inspection job card available for the building inspector when they arrive on the job site.
