THE CHALLENGE


Special inspections are a requirement of the New York City Department of Buildings for the purposes of ensuring contractor compliance with designs and applicable codes.

 

As a licensed Special Inspection Agency (SIA) with Class 1 accreditation, GRANT works on our client’s behalf to ensure the final product is built accurately such that it complies with drawings and codes.

 

Our experienced staff is cross-trained and certified in multiple areas of construction inspections to satisfy any project need. Our project managers are also experienced in design, and have the unique ability to assist design applicants with technical solutions to as-built NRC issues revealed during inspections.
