Grey Load provides project-specific Private Provider plan review and inspection services. We begin by confirming the location, project stage, applicable requirements and the services requested, so the engagement is clear from the start.
How private provider services work
Florida law (Section 553.791, Florida Statutes) allows a property owner or contractor to use a qualified private provider for plan review, inspections or both. The local building department keeps its role: it accepts the required notices and submissions, issues the permit and the certificate of occupancy or completion, and can audit the work. Requirements and procedures vary by jurisdiction, so we confirm them for your project before work begins.
How the engagement works
- Share the project address, permit information, plans and the services you need.
- We confirm the scope and the project documentation needed before work proceeds.
- We coordinate the agreed reviews or inspections and document the findings or any required follow-up.
- When the applicable work is complete, we prepare the closeout documentation included in the engagement.
Preparing for an inspection
Provide the permit number, project address, requested inspection, site contact and preferred date. Include the relevant approved plans and any photographs or records the project team asks for. Scheduling depends on the scope, readiness and availability confirmed for your project. Existing clients can reach the project team through the contact page.
Before you start
To keep the review independent, we will tell you up front if a conflict prevents us from taking on a project, for example when our firm prepared the plans. Engineering for the same project, such as a screen enclosure or a plan package, is a separate service.
Common questions
Will this guarantee a faster permit?
No. No permit timeline is guaranteed. Project completeness, required reviews, corrections and the permitting authority's process all affect the schedule.
Can I request only inspections?
Tell us which services you need and the current project stage. We will review whether the requested scope can be supported for the project and its location.
Does a certificate document mean the permit is closed?
No. Preparing a document does not by itself close the permit. The authority's acceptance and the final permit status have to be confirmed separately.
