Answer:
According to the California Health and Safety Code, a building inspector may enter a residence for inspection purposes, with or without the consent of the owner or occupant, any day between 8AM and 6PM. The inspector may enter at other times only with the consent of the owner or occupants or after obtaining a court order.
