DOB's No-Penalty Inspection Program gives property owners the opportunity to request a free DOB inspection of their home or business to check that these structures and associated building equipment are in good, hazard-free condition.

If we do find any violating conditions during one of these no-penalty inspections, our inspectors will not issue violations that carry associated penalties for a limited time, instead providing guidance on how to correct the conditions, and giving the owners the opportunity to make corrective repairs to get their property up to scratch.

Running through July 31st, 2023, DOB inspections performed through this program are perfect for the property owner who is looking to make home or business repairs, but doesn’t know how to get started. During the scheduled inspection our inspectors will be available to discuss any additional building concerns that the property owners may have, and direct them on how to obtain additional assistance from the Department.

Call 311 today to request a no-penalty DOB inspection for:
 

1.    Decks and patios

2.    Retaining Walls

3.    Facades for Building Under 6 Stories Tall

4.    Business Signs
