Most Utah building departments offer next-day or same-day inspection scheduling for standard residential inspections, with a 7:00–8:00 AM cutoff. On-site inspection duration: 20 minutes for a single-trade rough-in on a simple project; up to 2 hours for a comprehensive framing inspection on a complex custom home. Plan check (the permit application review before permit issuance) takes longer: Sandy and suburban jurisdictions, 2–4 weeks; Salt Lake City, 4–8 weeks; high-activity jurisdictions, up to 12 weeks. Special inspections (for SDC D structural elements) are scheduled directly with the special inspector, who typically needs 24–48 hours’ advance notice. RainFire Builders builds all of these turnaround times into the production schedule — inspection hold points are scheduled events, not afterthoughts called when the next trade is already waiting.
