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.
