What is a provisional building inspector?

Provisional Building Inspectors are entry-level professionals who assess construction projects to ensure they comply with local building codes, ordinances, and safety regulations. They typically work under the supervision of a fully certified building inspector while gaining the experience and knowledge required for full certification. Their responsibilities include inspecting structures, reviewing building plans, and documenting findings. This provisional status is often a stepping stone toward becoming a fully licensed building inspector after meeting required training and experience.
