Building Inspections
The Office of Inspections is responsible for conducting inspections of building projects to ensure their compliance with the adopted county building codes. Our certified inspectors perform all building, mechanical, plumbing and site inspections.
Scheduling an Inspection
Individuals who have become familiar with our online inspection schedule website have realized the benefits of this system, and the added features to keep you, the permit holder, apprised of permit requirements and inspection history.
One noticeable feature is the email notification that occurs the day of your scheduled inspection at 7:00 am. For the past year this notification along with a phone call from your Inspector have been a standard occurrence. However, starting April 26, 2021, the email notification will serve as our primary notification. You’ll no longer receive a phone call unless the Inspector has questions regarding your specific inspection request.
Please know that this email notification will continue to contain helpful information, including the estimated time of your inspection, identify of your assigned Inspector, and also provide links to view permit/parcel information and to pay fees.
Should you have any questions, please give us a call at (302) 395-5572.
For your convenience and future reference, please download and print our new brochure containing valuable information and instructions regarding the use of our Inspection Scheduling web site.
