YEah... I have no problem with the inspections... just the time it took to get the friggin permit in the first place. I'm hoping that they are prompt coming out to do them, is all.

I get it that they need to make sure the holes are deep enough, and that there are enough to support the deck, and that the framing is sturdy enough. I'll be using screws and treated wood for the inner framing, but nails and clear cedar for the visible decking and railing. It's 16' x 18' and the lumber alone cost $5400. And I shopped around for the best price. DiamondM lumberyard is supplying it.

The homeowner has a mason doing the footers tomorrow. I can't wait to get started.
