“Because Every School Deserves to Be Built Perfectly.”
DSA-Focused Services for K-12 School Construction
Cremo Inspection Services provides comprehensive DSA Project Inspection designed specifically for California K-12 schools. Every inspection service we deliver adheres strictly to Title 24, the California Building Code, and all DSA documentation standards. Our team ensures that school-site work is performed safely, correctly, and in full compliance with approved plans and specifications.
Classroom Safety & Student-Focused Construction
Every DSA-regulated project on a school campus requires strict attention to student safety, site access, and schedule coordination. We work closely with contractors and District staff to ensure all construction activities remain safe around ongoing campus operations, minimizing disruptions for teachers, students, and administrators.
A Trusted Partner for School Districts
For more than 20 years, Cremo Inspection Services has helped Southern California school districts maintain safe, code-compliant learning environments.
Our inspectors are committed to professionalism, clarity, responsiveness, and reliability — the core traits needed to guide a DSA project successfully from groundbreaking to closeout.
Dedicated to Safe, Compliant, and Efficient School Construction
Daily inspection activities include verifying contractor manpower, monitoring the progress of structural work, reviewing installation procedures, and ensuring materials conform to approved specifications. Our inspectors continuously cross-check construction against DSA-approved plans, addenda, and revisions to prevent rework and schedule delays.
We work hand-in-hand with architects, engineers, testing labs, and District construction managers, creating a unified workflow that supports timely decision-making. By addressing field issues immediately and documenting them through DSA-compliant daily reports, we help ensure safe occupancy, proper detailing, and smooth path-to-closeout for all K-12 school projects.
Schedule a Project Review Meeting
Whether your District is beginning a modernization, adding new classrooms, or planning a full campus replacement, we are available to review your project’s inspection needs. Our team can evaluate scope, staffing requirements, and schedule impacts to ensure full DSA compliance from day one.
Approach and Methodologies
DSA Plan & Specification Compliance
Every school project begins with strict adherence to the approved DSA drawings and specifications. Our inspectors verify that all work performed—from structural framing to ADA-required features—is executed exactly as approved. Any discrepancies are documented immediately and communicated to the design team to ensure the project stays compliant and on schedule.
Daily Reporting & Title 24 Documentation
Accurate documentation is a core responsibility of DSA inspectors. Each day, we prepare detailed reports that capture manpower, equipment, progress, material verifications, photos, and any field directives. These daily reports follow DSA IR-A-8 requirements and serve as the official record of construction for school facilities.
Material Verification & Special Inspection Coordination
Before installation, all materials arriving at the school site are checked for compliance with submittals, structural notes, and approved product data. Our inspectors also coordinate with special inspectors, testing labs, and geotechnical engineers to ensure all required tests—such as concrete, welding, and compaction—are completed and logged correctly.
Classroom Safety & Student-Impact Considerations
School campuses demand heightened awareness regarding safety, access control, and construction phasing. We monitor contractor logistics to ensure pathways remain secure, temporary barriers remain intact, and work does not interfere with student movement or daily school operations.
Early Detection of Non-Compliant Work
DSA inspectors play a crucial role in preventing costly rework. When deviations occur—whether in rebar placement, anchorage, framing, or accessibility components—we notify the construction team immediately and assist in coordinating the proper corrective measures before the work progresses.
Seamless Communication With Architects & Districts
Our inspectors serve as the eyes and ears of the District. We provide real-time communication to project managers, architects, and DSA field engineers to ensure every construction activity—large or small—moves forward smoothly. Weekly meetings, field walks, and clarification requests are all handled promptly to keep the project aligned with the schedule.
Experience That Keeps School Projects Safe, Compliant, and On Schedule
Since 2003, we’ve helped school districts build learning environments that are safe, durable, and fully compliant with DSA requirements.
From ground-up campuses to classroom additions and modernization projects, our work reflects a deep understanding of California’s Title 24 standards and the unique challenges of building on active school sites.
Our long-standing reputation is built on reliability, responsiveness, and a dedication to getting every detail right—because every student deserves a well-built school.
