Why Clay County Builders Use a Private Provider
In a county with active new construction across multiple master-planned communities, inspection availability is a direct constraint on how fast homes can progress through rough and final stages. With Tew & Taylor, inspections happen on your schedule — not a rotating queue that may run weeks out during high-volume periods.
Does Clay County require special permits for private provider use?
No special permits are required. After electing to use a private provider, the building permit is issued by Clay County in the normal manner. Tew & Taylor then performs inspections and plan reviews on your timeline, submitting results to the county. Clay County is legally required under F.S. §553.791 to accept those results.
