Deals with inspection issues
Why Construction Phase Inspections Matter
City building inspectors check for minimum code compliance. Sentinel goes further — ensuring craftsmanship, safety, and long-term performance.
We act as your independent quality control partner, keeping builders accountable and your investment protected.
Our inspectors identify issues such as:
Misaligned framing or improper nailing
Foundation or slab preparation errors
Plumbing or electrical rough-in conflicts
Missing vapor barriers or insulation gaps
Poor workmanship or incomplete finishes
Builder “shortcuts” that could void warranties
A construction-phase inspection series turns guesswork into guaranteed quality.
Our Construction Phase Inspection Packages
Sentinel’s phased inspections follow the full build cycle, providing documentation and oversight at every milestone.
Pre-Pour Foundation Inspection
Before concrete is poured, we verify grading, rebar, plumbing, and moisture protection for long-term stability.
Framing / Pre-Drywall Inspection
Before walls close, we check framing alignment, structural connections, and all system rough-ins.
Final Walkthrough Inspection
Before closing, we confirm all work is complete, systems are operational, and finishes meet quality standards.
Draw Verification Inspections (Optional)
For lenders or investors, we document progress and confirm completion before each payment draw.
Each phase builds on the last — ensuring that issues are found and fixed before they become permanent.
Local Expertise That Makes a Difference
Sentinel’s inspectors know the DFW market inside and out — from the slab foundations of Fort Worth to the attic ventilation systems in Frisco. Our deep local knowledge helps identify region-specific issues like:
Foundation shifting due to expansive clay soils
Attic heat buildup and roof deterioration
Drainage and grading problems from heavy storms
Aging HVAC systems common in older Dallas suburbs
We tailor every inspection to the area’s unique housing styles, from historic properties in Arlington Heights to new builds in Prosper.
