I have seen licensed permitted and finalized work that you could tell did meet the code from the street.
All work should be inspected the same
if you read the contractor law you need a licensed plumber to fix your toilet ( really, its in there)
if you hire yourself out as something you should have a license, but if your doing your own how can they force you to pay someone else to do a crappy job.
Also the building dept should be its own Department and they should rebid ( different job title every one has to apply from scratch) the jobs for the new dept at double the pay. It would save money in the long run
