When building a new home or embarking on a major renovation in Florida, one of the key factors that can affect the speed and success of your project is the inspection process. Traditionally, local government inspectors have been responsible for ensuring that construction adheres to the Florida Building Code. However, Private Provider Inspections have emerged as a faster, more flexible, and often more reliable alternative.
In this blog, we’ll explore the benefits of Private Provider Inspections and why more homeowners and developers are choosing to work with Private Providers over local government inspections.
Faster Scheduling and Fewer Delays
One of the most significant advantages of using Private Provider Inspections is the speed of service. Local government building departments are often overwhelmed with inspection requests, leading to significant delays. These delays can halt construction projects, sometimes for weeks, which can be frustrating and costly for homeowners and contractors alike.
In contrast, Private Providers can schedule inspections more flexibly and often on shorter notice. At Tew & Taylor, we offer same-day or next-day inspections on all accepted projects.This will help keep your project on schedule and avoid the bottlenecks typically associated with local government inspectors. By having quicker access to inspections, construction continues smoothly, and projects are completed on time.
Consistency in Inspectors
With local government inspections, it’s common to have different inspectors visit your site at various stages of the construction process. Each inspector might interpret code requirements slightly differently, leading to inconsistent feedback and potential confusion.
When you choose Tew & Taylor as your Private Provider, you will have the same inspector responsible for your project. This consistency helps foster better communication and understanding between the homeowner, contractor, and inspector, leading to a smoother process overall. The inspector becomes familiar with your project, helping identify issues earlier and ensuring they are resolved before they become costly problems. You also have a point of contact who is responsible for your project who you can call any time with questions.
Greater Control Over the Inspection Process
When using local government inspectors, homeowners and developers often feel like they’re at the mercy of the building department’s schedule. Private Provider Inspections give you more control over the timing and pace of inspections. Whether you're building on a tight timeline or have specific project milestones to meet, Private Providers can adapt to your needs, offering greater flexibility than government inspectors.
Permit Expediter Support
In many cases, building projects are delayed not only by inspection bottlenecks but also by slow permit approvals. A Permit Expediter like Tew & Taylor can help streamline the process by ensuring all necessary paperwork is in order and submitted correctly. While many Private Providers offer inspection and Plan Review services, Tew & Taylor also offers permit expediting services, ensuring that your project moves forward smoothly and quickly from start to finish.
Cost Efficiency in the Long Run
Though Private Provider Inspections come with fees that may seem like an extra cost at first, they often save money in the long run. By avoiding delays and ensuring that work is done correctly from the outset, Private Providers help prevent expensive rework, reduce holding costs, and keep construction on track. Additionally, the local government is required by law to provide a discount on your permitting fees if you use a private provider. Hence, it is cost-effective to hire a Private Provider like Tew & Taylor.
