Hi,
We are buying a house in Fanwood, NJ (Union County) and the inspection revealed under roof shingles, some parts have plywood decking (the inspector said that this is the standard building practice) and some parts have original wood pieces (the house is 150 years old).
According to the inspector, this may or may not be acceptable depending on the local building code.
We don't know anything about local building code or how we can find out about such code.
Will anyone kindly comment on this?
Thank you,
Atsushi
