Building Inspection & Plan Review Services
Private Provider Inspection & Plan Review
Florida Statute, No. 553.791, signed into law by Governor Jeb Bush on June 1, 2002, became effective October 1, 2002. Known as “Private Provider Inspections” (PPI), the law authorizes the use of qualified engineering firms as private providers for state required building code inspections and plan review on construction projects. This is good news for builders, contractors, and owners since every day saved in the permitting process is like money in their pockets! Yes it’s true, private building code plan review and inspections can now be done as an alternative to the typical municipal process. Universal Engineering Sciences, Inc. (Universal) has been on the forefront in providing these services since 2003.
Universal has become a leader in providing these services. Now our clients can enjoy the confidence of having a Top 500 Engineering Firm as code compliance partners on construction projects, all at a reasonable cost! Small or large, we provide the expertise to ensure compliance with building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, gas, energy, and accessibility codes as required by state law. Universal has developed this progressive service within a highly respected engineering firm that has vast knowledge of construction processes, building inspections, plan review and permitting. We have our own state certified building code administrator on staff which gives our firm the unique ability to know the issues that effect the operations of each building department, the delivery of services and quality control. Equally important—Universal provides fully-insured coverage for all inspections completed, as required by Florida law.
