Our Home Foundation Inspection Process

A home foundation inspection is a necessary step that comes after pouring the foundation or completing a new home. It’s important from both a legal and structural perspective to ensure everything is up to code and structurally sound. When an inspection is completed, you no longer have to worry about any potential issues that may have arisen during building, giving you the confidence to either complete other stages of your project or begin the selling process.

Setting up a foundation inspection with a licensed professional is the safest way to go for all things foundation repair. It’s important that they have experience dealing with foundations in your area since the environment and soil vary widely and can make foundation work more challenging depending on the location. To get the best and most impartial assessment possible, make sure the foundation specialist you choose doesn’t have any close ties to your company or yourself. With the right person, you’ll have all the information you need to make informed decisions about your foundation.

The length of the process can vary, and it tends to take longer to assess commercial foundations than residential ones, but in most cases, you can complete a home foundation inspection in 1-2 hours, including the interview process where the inspector asks questions about your methodology or other concerns. However, the length can also be impacted by the type of inspection you get. Some contractors just need a basic inspection, but others opt for an additional engineering report.

During the home foundation inspection, the inspector looks at the structure of your foundation. The inspector checks out the inside and outside of the foundation as well as the surrounding terrain. If the home has been built, they check internal elements, grading, and drainage issues as well. They may also do a floor elevation survey or complete other steps. If you’re concerned about something, you can ask for an inspection of that particular area.
