Codes Inspection
All inspection requests should be made through the Thompson's Station GeoCivix Plans & Permits webpage. Simply log into the system and use the 'My Dashboard' page to navigate to your permit or search with the magnifying glass icon in the upper right-hand corner then click the 'Request Inspection' button. Alternatively, inspections may be performed by the approved third party inspection agency at the builder's cost. Once the inspection has been performed by the third party, the builder will need to submit the inspection results through GeoCivix, the Town's electronic plan review system. To find more information, you can visit the Building and Codes page.
Please contact GeoCivix Support for help with issues concerning how to use the electronic plan submittal system. If you encounter issues with the website, you can also get support by creating a support ticket using your GeoCivix account.
Construction hours are from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday. No construction is allowed on Sunday or Town observed holidays.

The United States Post Office sets the regional zip codes for the area based on delivery routes. They do not reflect the municipal boundaries of local Towns and Cities. The Thompson's Station Zip Code (37179) extends into the boundaries of the City of Spring Hill so these properties will have a Thompson's Station, TN address but are actually in Spring Hill. There is similar property that lies within the northern boundary of Thompson's Station's that has a Franklin, TN address. Please refer to the map below for more information.
