Building Inspection

What We Do

The Building Safety Division is responsible for ensuring the safety of existing buildings and new construction within the Town of Addison.  Compliance is achieved through the  review of building plans, issuance of permits and on-site inspection of construction on private property to verify compliance with the Building, Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing Codes.  Additionally, this division registers contractors, and provides code information for new building construction, remodels, alterations, pools, fences, and signs.

The Town of Addison provides:

  • Same-day service on building inspections submitted through our CSS portal prior to 7:00 am. Inspections requested via our inspections line must be requested by 3:00 pm for a next business day inspection.
  • Specific appointments for residents who need inspections in their homes.
  • After-hour and weekend inspections if needed (extra fee).

 

Have additional questions? Please submit all Building Inspection inquiries to Permits@addisontx.gov.
