New homes

New home plans approved in hours, not weeks

Single-family plan reviews come back in hours, and every FCC inspection from footing to final happens when your crew is ready, not when the county has an opening. Built for builders who build the same plans again and again. You still file the permit and NTBO.

Workable time is the time our team can act on your plans during business hours (weekdays 9–5, Fridays 9–4 ET). It’s how long a compliant submission with no blockers takes us to review and approve within business hours. Time waiting on you, like corrections or a quote out for approval, isn’t counted.

No scheduling required. You simply request the inspection when the work is ready. Live inspection requests are taken Monday to Friday, 9 am to 4:30 pm ET; offline inspections can be submitted any time.
