We see it on Granada Hills roofs every week. Inspection scheduling in Granada Hills adds a day or two to the programme and should be in the contractor's timeline from the start. It is the same story on most Granada Hills streets. As a rule, permit fees in Granada Hills are a small part of the job and a large part of what protects the homeowner at resale. This holds across Los Angeles County.
