Building Inspection

ANNOUNCEMENTS – PLEASE READ

Permitting Software Platform Change

We are pleased to announce that we will be upgrading the online permitting platform as of April 1, 2021. It is the same vendor as the previous version, so it should have a familiar feel.  You may be required to re-register prior to being able to use the new site. Stay tuned for updates! 

Permits and Inspections During Covid Pandemic

Please excuse any inconveniences as we work through these difficult times together. We are still functioning and trying to keep you and our staff healthy to assist our customers and citizens but there may be some bumps in the road. We handle most of our permits online through: https://www.viewmypermitct.org/  (or see link to left). You can always call or email and we will respond as soon as we can.  We are still performing inspections, but ask you to delay any unnecessary inspections until this blows over. For occupied buildings we are only doing remote video inspections. Facetime seems to work best, but we are using Microsoft Teams for non-Apple users. Both of them will require you (or your contractor) to have a smartphone and possibly some other equipment to properly perform these remote inspections. Please assist us in keeping everyone safe.

For unoccupied structures (i.e. new construction, additions, vacant homes), if there has been no one in the building for 3 days and there are no valuables on the premises, we will enter unescorted to perform our required inspections.
