Healthy housing inspection programs
We inspect apartments, hotels, and emergency shelters to make sure they are safe, healthy, and free of vermin.
Report a vermin issue or health hazard in your building.

We also inspect homes for asthma patients and families with lead-poisoned children.
Hotel and emergency shelter inspections
We inspect hotels and emergency shelters such as:

We make sure conditions are safe and healthy for residents. We also provide training and resources to owners, residents, and the general public.
