Maybe you can have your Wanger sit on it and leave some impressions and add some “texture” to the surface....
Screw placement inspection? You are kidding right??? right???

...The washed finish would be a little rough on the elbows and make those midnight rendezvous a little abrasive on the booty
How in the world did you get them in there?? What will you put over those?
That hearth does look awesome! Have the home owners seen it yet?
Kim
Those bolts would have looked nicer if they were anodized to a pretty fuscia color. Can you call up “Rocco” at the lumberyard and ask him if he has any fuscia nuts?? Just send your Wanger to go get them ....
What will you put over those?
Nope.... He'll check the screws and the lath. Gotta make sure there's enough Staples
What I meant is what will you put over the post anchors to cover them up.
Kim
Holy Hannah, those anchors will handle some serious big uplift. Is Gulliver coming to party, or is that roof at the end of a runway at Miramar?
and i would assume the guy doing the inspection never picked up a screw gun either. it's my biggest peeve. i know i always talk about it but it just bothers me so much.
when i did my backporch roof it was completely over engineered. huge LVL to split the load which wasn't even needed. the roof was lagged into the house and through brick. it was nuts. he comes looks up. " ya i think you guys should throw 1 or 2 more lags in. . . "
ya i never called back for the final inspection. they never bothered me either 9 years later. fast forward the pool. i pull my permits cause my builder made me. i wasn't going to. complete joke. we texted in the electrical inspection. took pics of the rebar and the grounding made sure my house was in a pic or 2 and sent them in. lol ya never called back for the rest after that. i will next year when the fence is up so i can get the occupancy permit incase i ever sell the house, but no way i am doing anything for the pool house.
looks awesome brian!

... all it did was put me in a worse position than I was prior to the dispute
Sounds just like Aus and Canada with the vindictive regulators . Quicker to grit your teeth, chuck in a compliment on their eye for detail, and write a note or pick up a tool so they know you're getting on with it. Then they drive away. I was lucky to have an electrician back in Canada that would intentionally leave 2 or 3 unimportant (safe and easily changed) things incorrect, then lead the inspector to those 'transgressions'. He saved me a lot of money!
