More Than a Gnome, General Contractors Inspect and Protect Projects for Home
In all cases, general contractors are contractually obligated to analyze and oversee progress with your project. Inspections are necessary to ensure proper workflow, that any tasks performed meet all compliance levels with local regulations, standards of quality assurance, total accuracy, project deadlines, budget level, and saving lives. The contractor must inspect all these factors for a successful project finish.
The usual construction inspections include verifying materials and procedures comply with necessary plans and specifications, assessing contractors and subcontractors’ schedules, reviewing, and identifying any error within existing plans, and confirming those errors are eliminated before any further work continues, and last, but not least inspecting cabinetry, paint, coatings, flooring, lumber, etc., to avoid costly setbacks or delays in the project timeline.
Expect corrections with inspections. The purpose of an inspection, and the job of someone inspecting, is to find areas that need correcting. Fortunately, the rules are black and white, when it comes to construction and therefore, these situations are rarely, if ever, open to interpretation. It should be noted, California mandates that any individual conducting a roof inspection for a fee, may no longer perform the actual repairs to the same roof inspected within the previous twelve months. This includes energy efficiency and solar.
Routine home project inspections can and will give you peace of mind, since problem spots impacting your project goals are identified areas, that will surely be easier to fix now, rather than later. All construction or work performed requiring a building permit is subject to inspection by the Building Official and depending on the project type, there may be multiple inspections necessary, referred to as, “Special Inspections”.
The project is considered complete once the work covered under the permit has been examined and passes a final inspection.
