USIG Annual Inspections

Inspection will take place week of Monday, October 26th Through Thursday, October 29th.

Every resident can help the THA get ready for these important inspections by checking your own unit: Call in a work order right away if anything needs to be repaired in your home or apartment. The work order number is 336-475-6137 Ext 108.

Pre-inspect your unit and indicate any deficiencies.
For example, smoke alarms that are missing or broken electrical outlets or switch covers that are broken or missing, pests like roaches or bedbugs, non-lighting stove burners, missing stove knobs, missing sink stoppers, and improperly locked windows.

Maintain the unit's cleanliness and safety, and make sure the halls, unit, and furnace/HVAC closets are clutter-free.

Gasoline, propane, charcoal lighter fluid, gas mowers, charcoal/gas grills and engines should not be kept in your apartment. Before the inspection, get rid of everything that could catch fire. Keep the space surrounding water heaters and furnaces accessible. Verify that all windows and escape doors are unobstructed and open and close freely. You can locate water leaks by inspecting fixtures, listening for any hidden drips, and searching for clear signs of water damage. Check any closets beneath your bathroom.

Electrical wires, extension cords, and cables are examples of items that should be kept out of the way of any walkways.

If doors or windows are blocked by furniture or other personal items, these exits cannot be used in an emergency. Please take everything out of the way of all windows and doors, both inside and outside.
