To schedule an inspection: 

Ensure the work is completed before the inspection is scheduled. There will not be availability to cancel on the same day online, and you may not call the inspector directly to do so. It is the sole role and responsibility of those requesting inspections to ensure the work is complete in advance of the inspection request. 

Should you need to cancel an inspection please do so online if it is before 4:30 pm the day prior; otherwise, call (425) 386-4103 or email [email protected]. If your request to cancel is received after 4:30 pm the day prior, the inspection will fail. Future failed inspections may be charged an inspection fee. 

Go to https://Inspection.MyBuildingPermit.com and select the inspection request option. 

Select Newcastle from the list of cities. 

Enter the permit number in the search bar - not the address. 

Find the inspection(s) you would like to request from the list available for your permit. 

Select the date desired for the inspection(s).  

Do not select dates or windows for any inspections listed except those for which you are currently ready, and need completed. Selecting dates or windows for additional inspections will clear them from your list and make them unavailable to schedule in the future. 

Building Finals can only be scheduled if both Public Works and Planning Finals (if required) are Approved on your permit. Building Finals will not be performed in advance.
