As municipalities struggle with budgetary constraints and the need to provide quality building inspection and plan review services to protect the public, GBA has developed a team of certified building inspectors and administrative staff. Members of our team provide the full range of services, from performing residential and commercial plan reviews to serving as the municipality's Building Department.

GBA has been performing plan review and building inspection services since 1987 and has issued more than 4,700 permits for municipalities. Our comprehensive approach to building inspection and plan review includes:

• Plan review and inspection (IBC and/or BOCA requirements for residential, commercial, and industrial structures)
• Permitting (new residential and commercial; tenant improvements; renovations)
• Building inspections (footings and foundations, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and occupancy)
• Fire code conformance plan review and inspections
• Floodplain management ordinance preparation, inspection, buyouts, and interpretation
• Sign ordinance plan review and compliance
• Building ordinance preparation
• Code consultation with architects/engineers
• Issuance of certificates of occupancy
• Billing services
• File retention
• Code Enforcement Inspections
