Kirkland building permit inspections and closeout

Issuance starts the construction compliance phase. Building, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, fire, and Public Works permits may each have inspections that must be approved before work is covered or the project can close.

Create the inspection sequence

Start with the issued plans, permit conditions, and MyBuildingPermit inspection options. Match required inspections to the construction schedule and identify prerequisites for each request.

Prepare before scheduling

  • Approved plans and permit available on site.
  • Work complete and accessible for the requested inspection.
  • Required tests, reports, and special-inspection records ready.
  • Address, access, and contact information correct.
  • Prior corrections resolved.

Close every related permit

A final building inspection does not necessarily finalize separate electrical, plumbing, mechanical, fire, LSM, or right-of-way permits. Confirm final status for the whole permit family before final payment or occupancy decisions.
