What we handled for this final inspection
Final inspections require clear communication, thorough preparation, and a knowledgeable pro to interface with the inspector. For this visit, our Wilmington branch:
- Confirmed the inspection appointment and coordinated secure access for a vacant home
- Arrived early to perform a quick readiness check before the inspector walkthrough
- Met the inspector on site and provided project details as needed
- Verified that visible electrical work aligned with the current NEC as adopted locally
- Documented outcomes and shared the inspection confirmation with the customer
Our role is to make the inspection process smooth and transparent—so you’re not left guessing what the inspector needs or what comes next for permit closure.
Our final walkthrough checklist approach
While each project is unique, our technicians follow a consistent, safety-first approach during final walkthroughs:
- Panel and labeling review: verify clear labeling, proper working clearances, and secure covers
- Protection devices: confirm required GFCI and AFCI protection is present where applicable
- Grounding and bonding: visual checks of grounding electrode conductors and bonding connections
- Device and fixture checks: spot-check switches, receptacles, luminaires, and terminations for proper operation
- Life-safety devices: confirm placement and function of smoke and carbon monoxide alarms when part of scope
- Equipment identification: ensure disconnects and service equipment are accessible and properly identified
- Code notes: align with local amendments and inspector preferences to avoid delays
This thorough preparation helps minimize surprises during the official inspection and keeps your project on track.
