Inspections

The building permit and address shall be posted in front of the site or house and be visible from the main road or entrance.

All building inspections will be performed using the County-approved construction plans from the Build Henrico portal. It is recommended that the approved plans be printed and kept on-site for construction purposes. If any changes or deviations (e.g. adding a deck, changing a beam, changing location on property, etc.) are made from the approved permit plans, the plans must be amended (how to submit an amendment) and uploaded for review by our plans review staff before the appropriate inspection is requested. The desired changes must be clearly designated. If engineering details are required to abate a code violation, these details shall also be submitted for review.

All work to be inspected must be complete and ready for inspection prior to requesting the inspection.

All Trade Inspections must have an approved final Inspection before the Building Inspection can be finalized.
