1. Plan Ahead for Required Inspections
- Every new home service program requires at least two inspections (Rough + Final).
- Skipping or delaying the Rough (pre-sheetrock) inspection can mean losing incentive eligibility.
Pro Tip: Build these inspections into your project schedule up front so they don’t become last-minute delays.
2. Schedule Early & Communicate
- Email scheduling@southern-energy.com at least 3 days in advance to lock in your inspections.
- If plans change, cancel by 5:30 PM the day before to avoid fees.
Pro Tip: Assign one point of contact on your team to manage scheduling so nothing slips through the cracks.
3. Make Sure the Home is Ready
- Rough: Draft stop and insulation must be complete before we arrive.
- Final: HVAC start-up, power, weatherstripping, attic sealing, and door hardware should all be in place.
Pro Tip: Double-check readiness before the inspection to avoid re-inspection fees and keep projects moving.
