Building Inspection Checklists
The checklists shown correspond to the actual checklists used by the City of Sault Ste. Marie Building Inspectors when they visit your job site.
Reviewing your project against these checklists can increase your inspection success rate, and reduce the possiblity of requiring additional inspections.
While intended to be complete, it is possible a Building Inspector may identify issues on site that are not explicitly described on these checklists.
These checklists are subject to change without notice.
