Code Compliance & Inspections
Electrical code corrections, ADA compliance upgrades, and inspection preparation for St. Louis area businesses.
What We Provide
Why It Matters
Our Process
1. Violation Review
We start by reviewing any existing inspection reports—from the fire marshal, insurance inspector, or health department. If you don't have a report, we conduct our own code compliance assessment to identify all deficiencies before they become citations.
2. Code Research
Different jurisdictions and occupancy types have different requirements. We research the specific codes that apply to your facility—NEC, local amendments, ADA, and any industry-specific regulations. This ensures we address everything in one visit, not multiple rounds of corrections.
3. Prioritized Scope & Quote
We provide a detailed quote that prioritizes violations by severity: life safety issues first, then items that could cause shutdown, then general compliance items. You'll see exactly what needs to be fixed and why, with clear pricing for each item.
4. Permit Application
Code correction work typically requires permits. We submit applications with documentation showing the violations being corrected and the proposed solutions. For complex corrections, we may need to coordinate with building officials on acceptable approaches.
5. Correction Work
Our crews complete all corrections according to the approved plan. This might include installing GFCI protection, relocating panels for proper clearance, adding emergency lighting, upgrading to tamper-resistant receptacles, or replacing damaged equipment.
6. ADA Modifications
If your violations include accessibility issues, we relocate switches to proper heights, add accessible outlets, and ensure all electrical equipment meets ADA requirements. We document all accessibility improvements for your compliance records.
7. Documentation Package
We prepare complete documentation of all corrections: before/after photos, permit sign-offs, and a summary letter you can provide to inspectors or insurance companies. This package proves the work was done properly by a licensed contractor.
8. Re-Inspection Coordination
We schedule re-inspection with the appropriate authority—building department, fire marshal, or insurance inspector. Our team meets the inspector on-site to walk through all corrections and answer questions. We don't close the job until you've passed inspection.
