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.

FAQ

Plumbing Contractors FAQs

What is a plumbing private provider in Florida?

A plumbing private provider firm is a business authorized under F.S. 553.791 whose licensed professionals perform plan reviews and inspections as a private alternative to the local building department. Freedom Code Compliance handles your plumbing plan review (when required) and your virtual inspections under F.S. 553.791. You still pull the permit and file your own paperwork with the building department — we handle the review and the inspections that get it closed out faster.

How does a virtual plumbing inspection work?

Submit photos of your rough-in, underground, or final plumbing through the myFCC Mobile app — or join a live video inspection where a licensed plumbing inspector walks the job with you in real time. Photo submissions are reviewed within minutes. Live inspections deliver results before the call ends. F.S. 553.791 allows inspections to be performed in person or virtually, where the applicable code does not prohibit a virtual inspection.

Can FCC inspect underground and slab plumbing?

Yes. Underground and below-slab plumbing inspections are well-suited for photo submission — submit photos of your rough-in before the pour and typically get a result within hours, not days. Less waiting for a building department inspector to schedule a site visit before you can pour.

How fast are plumbing plan reviews?

Single-trade plumbing packages, re-pipes and changeouts included, typically come back in minutes. Plumbing on residential additions and new construction comes back in hours, and commercial plumbing reviews take 1–2 days. Compare that to building department queues that can run 2–6 weeks in busy markets.

Do you handle permits for water heater replacements and repiping?

Yes. Water heater permits and repipe packages are among our highest-volume plumbing permits. We handle plan review when required and inspection when the work is ready. Fast turnaround can help your crew wrap and move to the next job sooner.
