Any inspection requested by 4:00 p.m. on a normal business day will be made the next working day. A request with missing information can cause a delay in scheduling the inspection.

- Contact name and phone number
- Permit number
- Address, lot number, suite number
- Type of inspection needed
- Day of inspection
- Preference of a morning 8AM-12:30 PM or afternoon 12-3:30 PM inspection
