GET STARTEDLimited spots each week.
Every report is reviewed by a QA professional before delivery — not just generated and sent. That human review step means we can only take a limited number of jobs per week. Submissions are reviewed in the order they're received, and we'll let you know upfront if your report will take longer than 24 hours.
Before you ask.
What does the Covington Inspection Readiness Report include?
The report reviews your photos and tracking list against Covington Building Department requirements and Kentucky building codes. Each finding includes the applicable code section, a severity rating, and a recommended fix before your inspector arrives.
How does the Ohio River flood zone affect Covington inspections?
Much of Covington sits in the Ohio River flood plain. Inspectors verify equipment elevation, flood-resistant materials below base flood elevation, and backflow prevention on sewer laterals. The report checks all flood zone construction requirements.
Can the report handle historic building renovations in Covington?
Yes. Covington's historic rowhouses and commercial buildings frequently trigger code compliance when renovated. The report identifies where existing conditions in older structures must meet current Kentucky building code requirements on modified systems.
Does the report follow Kentucky codes or Ohio codes?
Covington follows Kentucky building codes enforced by the Covington Building Department, not Ohio codes used across the river in Cincinnati. The report references Kentucky-adopted code sections applicable to your specific project and inspection stage.
What is the cost and turnaround time for the report?
The report costs $250 flat and is delivered within 24 hours after you submit your photos and tracking list. The price covers all trades and inspection items with no additional charges for flood zone or historic building complexity.
