To request an inspection, go to the portal, click on the header View and go to My Permits.

You will then see a list of all your permit records. To view a specific permit, click on the permit number.

Click on the Inspections tab. Under this tab there are two sections: Required Inspections and Optional Inspections.

Please always select your inspections from the Required Inspections section. The Optional Inspections at the very bottom of the page is to be used only if you cannot find the inspection you need or if that inspection type has already been approved but you need another one for that project.

Check in the check box the inspection you need. You may select multiple at once if needed.

*Please be aware that the inspection types Building Other, Electrical Other, Mechanical Other, and Plumbing Other are inspections that should only be used if you cannot find an inspection that fits the inspection criteria you need. These options should be used as a last resort.

Please mention the day you would like the inspection, a good contact number for whomever will be there for the inspection, and any additional notes that the inspector may need to know.

These notes could contain a lockbox #, gate code, more detail about the type of inspection needed, or a preference on a time frame.

If you need to cancel an inspection, please email the Building Department at building@louisvilleco.gov before 8:30AM.

Once the Building staff has scheduled your inspection, you no longer have the option to cancel the inspection through the portal.
