I'm starting to wonder if anyone knows the inspection procedures around here. It certainly isn't my PB.
I got a call Monday evening saying we were scheduled for Plaster Saturday morning. Sounds good to me. Then I got another call on Tuesday. Apparently the PB just noticed that our Township requires the final inspection before plaster and that it was my responsibility to get it. After yelling at him for bringing it to my attention (for the first time ever) this late in the game, I had my wife call the Township and scheduled the inspection. Luckily, they act fast and scheduled for Wednesday.
I get a "reminder" call Wednesday morning that I'm scheduled for plaster Saturday. I "reminded" him that I still had to pass inspection first. Ok. The PB had said that someone needs to be there for this inspection. Both my wife and I were unable to be here, so she called to reschedule, but they told her no one needed to be there. Grrr. This PB is clueless.
The inspection was at 2:00pm. I get a call at 2:30 from my wife saying that a red tag was left saying "Not Passed". Great. What now. The inspector was out of the office, so my wife stopped by later in the day to find out what was wrong. Turns out that the final inspection doesn't happen until after plaster and water. He couldn't pass us because that hadn't been done yet! Grrr. This PB is clueless.
So I get another call from the PB late Wednesday. They have an opening Thursday and want to schedule the plaster then. Sounds good to me. I'm ready to get this over with. Now that I look at the weather, there a slight chance of rain Thursday and a good chance of rain Friday. I'll be filling with 2 water hoses and I'm concerned about the rain hitting the plaster before it's full. If there's even a chance of rain, I'll probably make them reschedule.
