I have a scheduled inspection for today, but I don't know at what time. How do I find that information?
Our inspectors have multiple inspections to complete each day, and it can be unpredictable how long each of them will take. For that reason, they can only offer a 2 hour window time frame for when an inspection will take place (between 8 a.m and 4 p.m).
To find out your 2 hour window, please contact your inspector directly, after you've been assigned one. To view our inspectors contact information, click here.
