​Who We Are



Inspection Services is primarily responsible for overseeing new construction of and alterations to commercial and residential buildings and the installation of plumbing, electrical, and heating and air conditioning systems. Plans are reviewed and permits are issued with conditional approval within the restrictions of State and City codes.

Inspections are made at various stages of construction. For each inspection made, a computer report is entered. These reports are kept in our computer database as a history of the property for current and future owners. Property files are public record and open for public inspection during regular office hours.
