The Cache County Building Inspection times are AM and PM only.

 How to schedule during the AM/ PM timeslots:

• When calling please be prepared to give the Permit Tech or Staff the address or permit number and let them know what day you will be ready.
• AM inspection you must be ready by 7:00 am. Inspector will arrive between 7:30 am - 11:00 pm. (Beginning July 19, 2021, until further notice)
• PM inspection you must be ready by 1:00 pm. Inspector will arrive between 1:30 – 3:00 pm. If you know you will not be ready, you will need to schedule for the following day.
• Concrete inspections require flexibility; when scheduling inspections, let us know when the concrete truck is scheduled and we will make a note. The inspectors will do their best to inspect prior to the truck's arrival. That being said the inspections will still be AM or PM and not a specific time.
• When requesting a Permanent Power Clearance, whoever is requesting the inspection MUST provide the Request or Work Order number issued by Rocky Mountain Power prior to our staff emailing the inspection report to Rocky Mountain Power.

Please be aware that when the inspectors arrive at the job site and you are not ready, you may be assessed a $75 re-inspection fee that must be paid prior to scheduling the next inspection. We will allow (1) 4-way in the morning and (1) 4-way in the afternoon as they take 1.5 – 2.5 hours to inspect depending on the square footage. Most other inspections will range from 30 minutes to an hour. We will allow flexibility for power inspections that required coordination with Rocky Mountain Power. Please understand that changes needed to be made to help out the inspectors as they do inspections throughout the day.
