REQUESTING INSPECTIONS

The building department provides inspection services for new construction, additions, and remodels. We do not provide home inspections or maintenance inspections for existing structures.

Inspection requests must be made the day before you want the inspection performed. Requests are taken by telephone via an automated system, or via the web, which are both available almost 24 hours a day, every day. The system is only down during computer back up from approximately 11:45PM – 1:45AM.

To request an inspection, you must have two pieces of information: the permit number and the code for the particular inspection type.

You will be given a list of codes at the time you pull your permit. Each day at 7:00 AM, the inspection requests that have been received during the past 24 hours are printed and assigned to the inspectors. Inspection requests received by that time will be done that day. So if you request an inspection at 6:00 AM, it will be performed that day, if you request one at 7:00 AM, it will be done the following day. The phone number for requesting inspections is 668-5959.

The web page for requesting inspections is http://www.co.summit.co.us/BuildingInspections/Default.asp.

lf you have any problems with the system, please leave a voice mail at the 668-3170 number to insure you do get the inspection the day you want it.

If you wait until our office opens at 8AM to let us know you have had problems, you may not get your inspection that day.
