New Home Construction - Phase Inspections
Most builders we know are honest, and desire to build quality homes; However, the builder and the city code inspector cannot always be there. Select Inspect can visit your property as an independent third party, representing your best interest. We discover errors early on, which can
save you (and the builder) from bigger troubles in the future.

Starting January 1, 2011 ALL builders in Texas will be required to construct new homes to the 2009 IRC and 2009 IECC
