What Is a Combination Inspector And Why Builders Love Them

When you’re trying to keep a build on schedule, nothing slows things down like juggling multiple inspectors for different trades. That’s why combination inspectors have become essential in today’s construction environment, and why Metro Code builders rely on them every day.

A Combination Inspector is certified to inspect several major code disciplines, including:

• Building

• Plumbing

• Mechanical (HVAC)

• Electrical

  
  

Instead of needing four separate inspectors, one highly trained professional can evaluate all of these components in a single visit.

Why Builders Prefer Combination Inspectors

Faster Scheduling

With one inspector handling multiple trades, builders avoid the delays that come from coordinating several separate visits. It means:

• Fewer scheduling hurdles

• Faster re-inspections

• Smoother closeout timelines

For busy supers, this is a game changer.

More Consistent Inspections

Different inspectors sometimes interpret requirements differently. Combination inspectors eliminate that problem.

Because they understand all major trades, they deliver:

• Unified, consistent code interpretation

• Clearer corrective guidance

• Fewer conflicting instructions on site

This reduces confusion and reduces rework.

Better Workflow for Builders

Combination inspectors see the whole structure, not just individual parts. They catch cross-trade issues early and help ensure one trade’s work doesn’t interfere with another.

That leads to:

• Fewer surprise failures

• Cleaner punch lists

• A more predictable build cycle
