In this week's video, we headed over to a new build to complete a Phase I inspection. I go through several items that we look out for, and then go through the specific issues we discovered at this particular property. We discuss post-tension cables, rebar, and more! Let's go check it out!
I create videos to help better inform home Inspectors, buyers, sellers, and realtors on how to find everyday problems with their houses/properties. I will also have guest speakers that work closely with the real estate trade.

How soon after an inspection should the concrete be poured? Is there a timeframe that you should have another inspection done if the builder fails to pour the concrete in a timely manner?
-
What about sleeves on the drain lines running through grade beams???
-
Can you make a video over Basements pre pour ?
-
Do you ever inspect the property line and setback distances?
-
Why do you wait until the plumbing is covered to inspect it? An underslab plumbing inspection is the first inspection prior to any pt, rebar, vapor barrier. International Code Council provides certification for inspectors, would be helpful to look into it.
-
Quick question. Is there a specific certification you need in order to perform phase 1 and phase 2 inspections?
-
Is there any kind of soil compaction test that needs to be done with a slab foundation? I only have experience with crawl space foundations. In my area an inspector will probe a footing looking for hard ground before any concrete is poured.
-
I filled a slope with red dirt. Leveled it out and dug my footers 10" deep. Then put 6" of gravel where the pad goes. Is grade considered the outside of the footers or is the grade where the slab sits?
