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.

    Not foundation but perhaps inflexible mortar product on the masonry that couldn’t bear normal movement …. This is a super great talk on the topic: https://youtu.be/CnX_SJmHnQI His “pieces of the puzzle” great to always remember.

    Good video. How do you go about writing up corner pop of a foundation?

    Minor crack running left to right on garage concrete floor that runs up wall, 6 inch 45 degree crack in nearby inside laundry room, separation gap crack and two 45 degree zig zagging coming from bottom on same wall. Settlement or foundation failure?
  • So since you are in the Houston area where there is more rain, humidity does that make the difference in you deciding on 3 indicators? I’m in the dfw area and I was taught 5 indicators during the practicum.

    If you use the machine that you bring into contact with the ceiling, isn't it possible that the ceiling is unleveled?

    I want to be a home inspector in Houston where do you recommend I start?
