How do they match: Fire Inspectors and Investigators

  • Building Inspector

  • Inspect buildings to detect fire hazards and enforce local ordinances and state laws, or investigate and gather facts to determine cause of fires and explosions.

  • Inspect buildings to locate hazardous conditions and fire code violations, such as accumulations of combustible material, electrical wiring problems, and inadequate or non-functional fire exits.
  • Review blueprints and plans for new or remodeled buildings to ensure the structures meet fire safety codes.
  • Subpoena and interview witnesses, property owners, and building occupants to obtain information and sworn testimony.
