After-hours inspections are only for non-emergencies, and a contractor representative must be on site with job plans, a permit card, and list of areas needing inspection. Scheduling is based on the availability of Building and Safety division staff. A two-day notice is generally required for after-hours inspections.
Applicants must have a valid permit before scheduling an after-hours inspection, and all work must be complete and ready for inspection before scheduling.
