So you would hold off final on a cubicle connection? Where often the banks will not fund money until the buildings are finaled?
I've never had a problem getting finaled with a few loose ends. Though I have a couple things going for me that help:
1) Clean up the job. If you have material and tools everywhere the inspector will think you aren't ready.
2) Be honest with the inspector. I tell the inspector what’s left and why its not done. No inspector I know is going to hold up final because the owner’s forklift charger is still shipping.
3) Have everything labeled in print. A label maker makes your job look like you are on top of things. This makes the inspector more comfortable releasing the building.
Inspectors are human too (well for most cities
). Have the job look professional and be honest with the inspectors and usually they will be helpful on getting the building passed.
