Frequently Asked Questions
What is a third-party construction inspection service?
A third-party inspection service like FCCIS performs building inspections on behalf of the permit holder — not the city or county. We ensure your project meets or exceeds all applicable building codes and report directly to the local building department to help keep your project moving forward.
Why would I use your service instead of the city or county inspectors?
Municipal inspections can often be delayed or inflexible. FCCIS offers a faster, more reliable alternative. We work around your schedule, maintain open communication, and focus entirely on your project — ensuring you're never just another number in a backlog.
Do you report to the local building department?
Yes. While we work directly for you, the permit holder, we provide detailed, compliant reports to your local jurisdiction — such as the Monroe County Building Department — to satisfy all inspection requirements tied to your permit.
What types of projects do you inspect?
We provide inspections for all types of permitted work in the Florida Keys — including new construction, remodels, additions, structural repairs, and more. If your project requires a permit, we can inspect it.
How do I schedule an inspection with FCCIS?
Scheduling is easy. Just contact us directly via phone, email, or our online booking form. We’ll work with your timeline and provide fast, responsive service anywhere in Key West or the Florida Keys.
