The City of Riverside has been very helpful to us, and
their website (www.ci.riverside.ca.us) is extremely useful and
informative, containing forms and handouts that were critical in the
planning phases. They have also performed multiple inspections to accommodate
the weird schedule a remodel brings.
We'd like to also thank and recommend the
following contractors who have performed wonderfully and at a reasonable
cost.
