Obtaining an Inspection

You can contact us via our inspection line at 254-897-9373 or via our main office line at 254-897-2272 option 5 to schedule an inspection.  At this time we are trying to accommodate inspections within 1/2 hour (30 minutes), but times may vary depending on workload.  

Failure to schedule for Inspection

Failure to schedule required inspections with the Building Official can prevent the issuance of Certificate of Occupancy and may require removal and rework of said work.
