Hello everyone,
Yesterday, we received a letter from the city hall requesting that we remove the barriers and the crane from the street by November 30, 2023, as our previous permit apparently expired some time ago.
They also mentioned that unfortunately our general planner is unable to comply with all the regulations and orders and does not consider themselves responsible for the traffic-related requirements. For this reason, no new traffic-related permits will be approved for the time being.
Our general planner says that there was only a broken lamp, which was replaced on the same day. Could this really be the reason for this decision?
I will definitely speak with them to try to get more details about what went wrong with the general planner. Do you have any suggestions on how to resolve this conflict? Is there anything I should specifically monitor? Would it make sense for me to visit the construction site and ensure that everything is running smoothly day and night?
Tomorrow, I will also ask the shell builder how long the crane needs to remain on the sidewalk, but I am not sure what can be done if the city hall does not approve another extension.
Thank you very much
Best regards

If you send the building inspector during the final inspection, they can only assess what is visible. Everything important is already covered with plaster by then.Please excuse my lack of knowledge, but in the examples mentioned here, the main criterion is to check things before they are covered with drywall or plaster.
It might be sufficient to inspect everything at once before plastering and screeding (shell construction including roof, window installation, insulation/airtightness, and the complete rough-in of building services).
After that, of course, the individual trades are inspected separately (plastering and screeding, flooring and tiling, painting, etc.).

I think such a problem would be detected in time by the building inspector. At the very least, the shell should be inspected before drywall and plastering, and the KFW inspection and blower door test should be carried out. Don’t rely too much on things like the blower door test. In our case, it supposedly passed, yet the attic hatch is not airtight (resulting in condensation), and the general contractor will have to come back soon for a second repair.

Given the background, I would have the expert called in once the ground floor is partially built to check whether the joints are done properly and the overlapping measurements are correct. Also, as soon as the first course of bricks is laid, I would measure the individual dimension chains. Don’t hesitate—once the intermediate floor is poured, no corrections can be made on the ground floor.

Also, as soon as the first row of bricks is laid, I would measure the individual measurement chains. Don’t hesitate—once the intermediate floor is poured, no one will fix anything on the ground floor anymore. Considering the background, I would already be on site with a strict eye when the base slab and foundation grounding are "up next" and have the surveyor verify whether the construction is starting correctly in terms of position and height.
