Special Inspections Services
LEVEL Engineering can help you with your special inspections. Our team is qualified and experienced in this realm and have helped many clients with special inspection engineering.
Special Inspections, as defined in the IBC-International Building Code: “the inspection of construction requiring the expertise of an approved special inspector in order to ensure compliance with the code and the approved construction documents.”
What Special Inspection
Services do We Offer
Odd, unique, or one of a kind projects that require special attention and expertise. Special inspections vary throughout the country (complexity, verification, legislation).
Frequently, local jurisdictions don’t have in-house staff to inspect these complexities, therefore the building official can request 3rd party independent experts to fulfill the inspections. That’s where we come in. We understand special inspections and are certified in your area. Reach out to us to see if we can serve your Special inspection needs.
