Inspections

Inspections do not happen automatically.

It is the homeowner's or contractor's responsibility to contact the County of Brant to book an inspection. Failure to have inspections may result in uncovering and exposing work for inspection.

Building inspections must be booked with a minimum of 24 hours notice and prior to 3:00 pm to receive an inspection for the following business day (subject to availability). Any inspections booked after 3:00 pm will be booked for the second following business day.
