All inspections will be scheduled through our Online Inspection Scheduling system. This system allows you to schedule inspections 24/7.
Inspections must be scheduled by 3:30 PM the day before the inspection is needed, or by 3:30 PM on the last business day of the week, if requesting a Monday inspection.
Using the Online Inspection Scheduling button above, please provide all requested information and check the box or boxes corresponding with the type of inspection needed.
Multiple inspection types can be requested for the same time.
Our inspectors try to accommodate specific time requests for concrete pours. Please add the pour time in the notes section.
