Building Inspection Please go to E-Gov Services to download building/construction permits.
The City of Vandalia employs two full time building inspectors, one full time electrical inspector and one full time housing inspector to review plans and make inspections to assure compliance with codes. Additionally, the City contracts with a state certified plans examiner for review of all commercial & multifamily structures.
To help assure that construction can start on schedule, plans for residential construction should be submitted at least two weeks before the intended start date (three weeks for commercial and multifamily). Plans are reviewed in the order submitted and , therefore, time for approval of any given set of plans is dependent upon the total number filed for review and the correctness of the plans as filed.
Calls for inspections during construction must be received 24 hours in advance. Plan approval and inspections for interior plumbing work are handled by the Montgomery County Plumbing Department. Their offices are located at 451 W. 3rd Street in Dayton and they may be contacted at (937)225-4421.
