New Construction Inspections

Phase I - Slab Inspections

If visible, we can inspect the: formwork, plumbing, reinforcement, moisture barrier and any other materials that are going to be embedded in the concrete, before permanency occurs.

We inspect the elevation of the finish floor for adequacy, in order to prevent future grading and drainage problem, which can cause many major defects such as moisture intrusion damage and increased termite risk. Slab thickness is also important but sometimes not achieved because too much fill was provided within the pour area. Slab thickness is also checked at this time.

Some other elements inspected include:

1. Ensuring internal load bearing footers are provided and properly located.

2. Visible plumbing and drainage lines are properly laid and protected.

3. Vapor barrier is properly installed and sealed at all joints and openings.

4. Proper placement and tying of concrete reinforcement bars.

5. Proper reinforcement of formwork.

6. Trenches for footers properly cut out and clear of debris.

7. Ensuring no visible debris or foreign material within the pour area.

To take full advantage of this inspection service we strongly recommend you have the design drawings and builder's engineering document available for the inspector.

Other Services Available

• Complete measured survey prior to pour

• Re-Inspections are available when requested. This is a valuable service particularly for out of town clients and situations where oversight is needed to insure repairs have been made. Typically the fee is half of the original (Note: must be performed before the concrete pour).
