FAQs

Does someone need to be at the job site for the building inspection?

On minor residential projects such as patio covers, decks and re-roofs where the work can be inspected without entering the occupied portion of the house or garage, the inspection can be performed without the owner or contractor at the job site. If you choose not to be at the job site, be sure to allow access to the area to be inspected, provide a ladder if needed to access the area to be inspected, and make sure that dogs and other animals are secured. In the case of larger projects where the Building Inspector will need to enter the home, an adult aged 18 or older, must be present during the inspection.
How will I know if my building inspection was approved or failed?

Immediately upon completion of the inspection (either approved or failed), inspection results are emailed to the contacts on the building permit. If the inspection is failed, the email notification will include the reasons the inspection was failed.
What paperwork am I required to leave on the job site for the Building Inspector?

The Building Inspectors will need the approved plans and permit in order to perform the inspection. However, now that all plans are submitted digitally, the Building Inspectors have access to all documents from their tablets while they are in the field. If you would like a physical permit or job card signed by the inspector, please be sure to leave the printed copy at the job site.
