PHASE #2: INSPECT THE FRAMING PRIOR TO THE INSTALLATION OF THE DRYWALL FOR PROPER HEADERS, JOIST HANGERS, CLEARANCE OF ELECTRICAL WIRING & PLUMBING LINES FROM THE FACE OF THE FRAMING STUDS (NAILS PUNCTURING THE SAID LINES). PHASE #3: FINAL INSPECTION. MY FEES ARE $100.00 PER TRIP (PHASE #1 & #2) AND $200.00 FINAL INSPECTION.
I have at least 7 steps to new/phased construction inspections. From the bare hole in the ground (utilities connections), pre-foundation pour, crawl/first floor framing, post truss/roof installation, post wire/plumbing, pre-exterior cladding and final walk-through. The pictures (upwards of 150) are edited and then presented in a photo album. This has been very well received specially from out of town purchasers.
