Fire Prevention division

The goal of our Fire Prevention division is to stop fires before they start. We review commercial building plans, issue permits, and conduct inspections.

Inspections

We inspect businesses annually to make sure everything is safe and meets codes and regulations. These inspections also help us familiarize ourselves with your building and save time if an incident happens.

We inspect commercial building projects, like additions, remodels, and new construction. We also inspect mobile food trucks.

Please contact us 48 hours before you want an inspection.
