How long does it take for my membership application to be approved?
There are a lot of variables associated with this process. The CSSB is committed to processing applications in a timely manner. Your application must be filled out completely with the proper paperwork submitted along with a check for the membership fee. A District Manager in your area performs a preliminary approval of the application and then it gets presented to the Board of Directors for final approval. The Board of Directors meets quarterly. The Board of Directors may also vote for membership approval via fax. This may happen between board meetings, depending upon total number of applications received.


Warning/Disclaimer
As with all construction projects, ensure that your local Building Official approves of the installation method used in your local area. The CSSB assumes no liability whasoever for any application nonconformance.
