 How to Schedule Inspections

  • Inspection requests should be made on the 24 hour Inspection Request Line at (415) 289-4100 ext. 800
  • Callers will need to provide the following information in their request:
    • The desired day and date of the requested inspection
    • The permit number
    • The site address
    • Preference for AM or PM inspection (AM is 9AM to 12 noon; PM is 1PM to 4PM)
    • The type of inspection
    • A contact name and cell phone number for the person meeting the inspector on site

Inspection Information

  • Every attempt will be made to perform inspections on the next regular inspection day; however, inspection requests will be processed on a first come, first serve basis. If an inspection request needs to be altered due to compliance with safety protocols, inspector’s schedule, or time constraints a phone call will be returned to the contact person. Otherwise, there will be no confirmation call returned and the inspection will be scheduled as requested.
  • Requests must be made by 4:00 pm the day before the inspection. Any inspections requested after 5:00pm will automatically be considered for another inspection day.
  • Re-inspections resulting from no-shows or failed prior inspection will be charged a re-inspection fee of $75.00.
  • A responsible party shall be on site during the inspection and have the following paperwork on site:
    • Building approved plan set
    • Any additional documents issued with the plan sets (i.e. structural calculations, geotechnical reports, etc.)
    • The job card issued with the building permit
