Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about independent on-site inspection services in New Jersey.
What is an independent on-site inspection agency?
An independent on-site inspection agency provides UCC inspection services within authorized scope. Garden State Code Compliance is not a municipal enforcing agency — we provide independent inspection documentation that supports permit files and project closeout.
What types of inspections does Garden State Code Compliance perform?
We provide inspection services across five UCC subcodes: building, electrical, plumbing, mechanical (HVAC), and fire protection. Visit our services page for details on each subcode.
How do I request an inspection?
Contact our office by phone at (908) 506-3305 or email at [email protected]. Provide your project address, municipality, permit number, and inspection type.
How quickly can an inspection be scheduled?
We coordinate directly with your project timeline. In most cases, inspections can be scheduled within a few business days of your request, though availability may vary by location and demand.
Is my municipality eligible for your services?
Our services are available in municipalities that participate in the on-site inspection program. Contact our office to confirm eligibility in your area.
What documentation do you provide after an inspection?
Every inspection is documented with clear, detailed records suitable for permit files and project closeout. Documentation covers conditions observed during the inspection within authorized scope.
What if corrections are identified during an inspection?
If items requiring correction are identified, our documentation will clearly describe what was observed. Once corrections are addressed, you can schedule a follow-up inspection through our office.
Are your inspectors licensed?
Yes. All inspections are conducted by NJ-licensed professionals with practical knowledge of the Uniform Construction Code.
