Hi folks;
1
Of all the people that have built custom HT's how many of you have gotten proper permits for the electrical work??
I've checked ,and I'm OK with the physical structure. As long as I'm not dealing with the structure, a premit isn't required.
I'm really worried about the cost for the required 3 inspections for electrical work, I've only budgeted a maximum of $3000 for the whole thing in an 11' by 16'(18'?) space.
Does anybody have any idea on the cost for the inspections?? I'll be calling Ontario Hydro soon, but if the inspections are $100+ each time that puts a real bite in my budget.

OK, I'm wondering whether there is any reason to build the structure ON the concrete wall?? Can I just build the wall as close to the cinder block as possible and not deal with adhering the studs??
I am looking at building the walls on top of my Dricore, can I get away with sliding the dricore up to the wall and having a free standing wall with only the insulation touching the cinder block wall??
Seems weird I know, but the little things have me stumped.
Thanks for the help.
