Comprehensive Pre-Construction Home Inspection Before Pouring The Slab
This video provides an in-depth look at a pre-construction home inspection conducted by Matt, a home inspector from Texas Edge Home Inspections. The inspection takes place before the concrete is poured, allowing the inspector to thoroughly examine critical components that will soon be covered up and inaccessible.
Throughout the video, Matt meticulously examines various aspects of the construction site, including:
1. Post-tension cables: Checking the placement and condition of the cables that strengthen the foundation.
2. Moisture barrier: Identifying tears, gaps, and improper installation in the moisture barrier, which is crucial for protecting the home.
3. Plumbing pipes: Inspecting the sleeves and protection around pipes that pass through the concrete slab.
4. Cable chairs: Ensuring the chairs that hold the post-tension cables are properly supporting the cables.
5. Level and bracing: Verifying the forms are level and adequately braced.
6. Debris: Identifying and removing any construction debris that could be embedded in the concrete.
The video highlights the importance of these pre-construction inspections in ensuring the quality and longevity of the home's foundation and overall structural integrity.
