Commercial Building Inspections
Once my building permit is issued, should I request inspections from the Building Division?
Yes. The inspections that follow the issuance of the permit are provided to ensure that work completed on your project meets current building codes and standards. (Please keep in mind that your project may also require inspections from other agencies or City of Rocklin divisions. Your approved set of plans and job card will specify the agency or division name including contact number and type of inspection(s) required.)
