Inspection of construction projects allows the City to ensure public safety through the effective enforcement of construction codes and standards for the construction, repair, demolition, occupancy and maintenance of buildings, structures and properties. Inspection activities ensure that every step of the construction project is completed in accordance with the adopted City Codes.

The City utilizes a third-party contracted inspection company, Bureau Veritas, to inspect construction projects. Inspections related to building construction (building, plumbing, mechanical, fire protection, and/or electrical) can be requested by contacting Bureau Veritas directly at any of the following:

            Phone:    (817) 335-8111 or (Toll-Free) (877) 837-8775
            Fax:        (817) 335-8110 or (Toll-Free) (877) 837-8859
            Email:      inspectionstx@us.bureauveritas.com

The request must include the following information:

• Project address
• Inspection type requested
• Permit number
• Contractor’s name and contact information
• Date inspection is to be performed
• Any special instructions or requests for the inspector

Inspections received by Bureau Veritas by 5:00pm Monday-Friday (excluding Holidays) will be scheduled for the next business day following the request. Fire protection inspections usually take longer to schedule, so you should allow for three business days for those inspection requests to be coordinated.
