Home Inspector in Katy, TX

Inspecting homes in Katy

Katy's growth means a large share of the homes we inspect here are new construction or still inside their builder warranty period. Master-planned communities such as Cinco Ranch, Firethorne, Cane Island and Elyson add homes constantly, and volume building is exactly where workmanship shortcuts appear.

Katy also sits on the highly expansive clay soils of the Katy Prairie. These soils swell and shrink dramatically between wet and dry seasons, which puts sustained stress on slab foundations. Drainage and grading matter enormously here — and much of Katy learned that lesson the hard way during Hurricane Harvey, particularly properties near the Barker and Addicks reservoirs.

What we focus on in Katy

• New construction phase and final walkthrough inspections
• 11-month builder warranty inspections before the deadline
