Phase 1 Inspection/Pre-Concrete Pour Inspection: The foundation of a home is the first and most important part of the home building process. Foundation issues can be very costly to evaluate and correct if there is ever an issue. Having everything in place before the concrete is poured gives a house the best chance for stability and longevity. I will inspect the site to ensure that all the cable are tied together, all the cable stands are in place, the pipes are all protected, and that the distance between the cables and pipes allows for the stretching of the cable.
Phase 2 Inspection/Pre-Drywall Inspection: This inspection gives me the chance to check on how the frame is put together, where the water and electric lines are run and do check on the status of the home. Once the walls are put in it becomes very time consuming and costly to find and correct issues.
Phase 3/Home Inspection: This inspection takes place once the home is completed, before the final builder walk-through. Everything needs to be complete on the home and all the utilities are turned on. This is a normal home inspection-see description above. Sometimes during the building process some things are overlooked.
