I rarely pull permits unless it's new construction and large alterations. I'm not partners with the government and will leave it up to the customer.

Burn in hell side jobber!!! So sad, too bad. Maybe doing side work has some downfalls after all!

In MN, if you don't file within 14 days of starting a job the minium fine is double the inspection fee. So if you forget you get a nasty gram from the state.

Everywhere is different but here they have to get a licensed electrician to pull a permit and call for an inspection, when I've done it I've inspected the work first and made unlicensed electrician make corrections, or quoted price to fix (and usually didn't get the job).

He got written up...

What did he do wrong?

I'm not sure where in the world you live at, but where I live, city inspectors do not just show up at places where they are summoned by business owners.

There's got to be more to this story.
An inspector will not come out unless there is a permit or there was a complaint made or something???

chicken steve

pulling permits to me is simply supporting the inspectors , and dept they hail from

sort of like my buying a fishing license, and not having time to fish

that said, a few federal $$$ came to town, and they (the inspectors) rolled over for it all

they let non green card mexicans invade

they let unlicensed work stay, even tutored them

thier inspections missed many details, some life threatening

they granted an OC without final for any mechanical sub permits

they totally played politics, which isn't their job as far as this boys tax $$$ go

1/2 the permits i've pulled never see a final anyways, so why bother

it's a shameful situation here, not one condusive to public safety at all
