The biggest challenge with materials seems to concern windows.
If window shipments are delayed, DPS inspectors will complete a partial framing/close-in/concealment inspection. These type of projects can be approved, providing that the window openings are weathertight and protected from the elements. A separate framing inspection will be conducted once the windows are installed to ensure all codes and manufacturers’ instructions have been followed.
