Mechanical Contractor / Inspector Review Board
A panel with an equal number of inspectors and contractors, to arbitrate specific disagreements between inspectors and contractors. The review decisions are non-binding and the opinions offered are objective.
Complaints might include such things as "intractable inspectors" and "shoddy contractors", differences of opinion on job installations and code interpretations.
If you are in a circumstance where you feel mediation will be helpful, please notify the Association office at 248-649-5443 or email mechinspect@bignet.net
