If in an HOA managed area, must show that plans have been submitted for their review and approval. There are also contractor registration requirements for most projects.
Typical home inspection process:
Plan review- Ensure plans meet zoning category, codes, building line, set back and other requirements.
Temporary power pole- Coordinated with TVEC. A meter is placed through which to provide power during the construction process. It is later discontinued when a meter is placed on the house and activated.
Plumbing rough- Inspection of the plumbing which will be covered up under or within the foundation.
Prepours:
Foundation: This inspection ensures the framing, steel, widths, depths and other prep is correct and ready before slab concrete is poured. Sometimes, most often for accessory buildings, a pier and beam method is used. However, the purpose is still to ensure everything is prepped according to code and plans.
Flatwork/Patio: Done to check driveways, sidewalks, patios or any other less extensive concrete work are done appropriately. This includes the thickness, correct rebar, use of the ‘chairs’ used to hold the rebar off the ground during the pour, etc.
MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing), Framing & Brick Ties- Most often done together. Basically checks all items needing inspection before things get covered up with drywall and brick.
Final- Done once everything, including appliances, are in place.
Accessory buildings:
Based on what is being done. Cost based on number of necessary inspections. Typically will still have a prepour, though it may be for pier and beam rather than a slab.
Typical pool inspection: (Can vary if a spa, fire pit, arbor or other amenity included.)
