Welcome to Week 3 of 
Building Safety Month

When to Call a Professional

Building safety professionals are an essential piece in the building and construction puzzle and are engaged in the building process from the initial building plan to the finished product. Always check with your local building safety department before beginning home improvement projects. Requirements vary, but many building safety departments require permits for home improvement projects, including electrical, mechanical, structural, or plumbing work. Follow-up inspections provide a measure of safety to protect your life and property.

Code officials bring building codes to life through:

• Site inspections
• Code interpretation support and consultations
• Renovations and rebuilding
• Building plan and permit approvals
