The building code inspector stopped by my house today.
I passed my open wall rough in inspection!
Now I can put in my insulation and start hanging some sheet rock.
Electrical, plumbing and HVAC is all complete. Nine months into this house building project and I am freakin tired.
***edit*** Title should have said they stopped BY my house today.

Congratulations! When I read the subject line, though, I was expecting bad news.

No bribe, just a small plain brown envelope.

It actually went very well. I was expecting a list of things but other than a couple of minor suggestions, it went well. I had a couple of questions in insulation and bonding the steel building and he offered suggestions.
I have always heard of horror stories with building inspectors but once again, these guys here in St. Martin Parish are here to help more than nitpick and be jerks.

Those "guys" would be me and the wife. Other than the plumbing, we have done all the other interior work ourselves.
Yes, we are slow.
