Limited Saturday Inspections Now Available

Homeowners can now request Saturday inspections for:

* water heaters,

* hot water recirculator pumps and;

* swimming pool finals

Because these inspections often require homeowners to be on site and frequently cause interruptions to work/week schedules, the Inspections Services department is now offering Saturday service for a limited number of inspection types.

To schedule a Saturday inspection for the inspection types listed above call (480) 312-HOME (4656) and leave a message with your name, phone number, type of inspection and address. A city of Scottsdale building inspector will return your call to confirm the type of inspection being requested and schedule a time. Our goal is for the inspection to occur within a one hour window of the time identified.

If you have questions about whether an inspection qualifies for this service, please call Steve Gallant at (480) 312-5773.

Exterior stucco -- contractor or home owner needs to obtain a minimum building permit and submit the ICBO# which specifies that the stucco material has been tested, certified and approved.
