BTW: if you didnt get a permit for the construction(and therfor the required inspection) you may face an additional fine for not following the laws in your area.

IF you dont get it inspected, and the authorities come around, NO MATTER how far along your hous is, the Building Inspector can have THE ENTIRE HOUSE CONDEMNED and your out ALL of the money you have spent. Everything may have to be redone - at your cost.

Never never never pay a contractor for his work with out an independent inspection by the proper authorities!

If he is having a house built, he probably has not bought it yet. The builders are in cahoots with the inspectors and it probably has been accepted by an inspector.

Builders wont fix a damn thing unless you sue them, and if the house has not even been sold yet, it's a waste of time. You have to buy it to sue them and then it's a multi year process. The problem is they have a racket where every two or three years they close the business and reopen with a new name and license...meaning they dont have the same company and there is no recourse for a home buyer.

Sad but thats the way it works.
