What is a Special Inspector or Deputy Inspector?
If you're managing a construction project and come across a note on your plans requiring a special inspection by a deputy inspector, that's where we step in. A Deputy Inspector and Special Inspector refer to the same role. These inspectors are third-party professionals mandated by the California Building Code across all jurisdictions in the state for every construction site. Although not employed by the city, Deputy Inspectors must hold proper licenses to perform specialized inspections. The city oversees their work to ensure compliance with the California Building Code and approved plans. We are available whenever such inspections are needed.
