Who We Are

Building Code Inspectors (BCI) is a family owned and operated construction inspection agency started up by myself, a multiple-certified inspector and Master Code Professional (MCP).

Our agency is registered with the Third-Party Program of Washington, DC. It complies with all DCRA requirements for registration as a Third Party Inspection Agency including inspector qualifications and liability insurance.

Experience

I have 28 years of work experience in the building field. I started as an electrician, but with multiple certifications and examinations progressed to become an inspector working under the City Government Inspectors in Ohio over 14 years, followed by a highly reputable Third-Party Inspection Agency in Washington D.C. over a span of 10 years. With a desire to work for myself, four years ago I decided to open my own business.

Pride

At BCI we strive to provide the best service in the area. We love what we do, so we want to EARN your respect and repeat business through our honest and thorough approach.

"Honesty is the best policy."

How We Are Different

BCI is a family-run business that focuses on fostering lasting relationships and educating our clients.

Flexible Scheduling

At BCI, we aim to provide next day inspections. In the worst case, this means an appointment within 48 hours. In the best case and dependant on scheduling, it is possible to have same day inspection.

Free Telephone Consultations

Choosing the right building inspector can be a daunting process. That's why we offer free telephone consultations - so that we can ensure that we are a good fit and build trust from the very beginning.

Furthermore, in case of emergencies, the inspectors at BCI are reachable until 8pm Monday through Friday and up to 6pm on weekends and holidays.

Unlike some of our competitors, BCI offers a per-inspection fee structure. No hidden fees or confusing stipulations to go through - just an honest price for honest work.

A Dedicated Relationship

With BCI, you are not just another project. We want to get to know you and ensure you are comfortable throughout the process.
