Learn MoreCentral Texas has some of the most active termite populations in the state, with subterranean termites active year-round. We provide certified Wood-Destroying Organism (WDO) reports, often required by lenders for VA and FHA loans.
Learn MorePerformed after framing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC rough-ins are complete, but before insulation and drywall are installed. This is the only stage where a builder's workmanship is fully visible, giving you the opportunity to identify and correct defects before they're sealed permanently behind walls and ceilings.
Learn MoreConducted before concrete is poured, this inspection evaluates the placement and spacing of rebar, post-tension cables, and form boards to ensure the foundation is built to plan. In Central Texas, where expansive clay soils put constant stress on slab foundations, catching installation errors at this stage is far less costly than addressing foundation problems after the fact.

HomeTeam of Austin has inspected homes throughout Austin since 1997, one of the longest-running and most experienced HomeTeam franchises in Texas. Under his leadership, the Austin team has conducted tens of thousands of commercial and residential inspections throughout the Greater Austin area, from Austin to Georgetown, from the Hill Country to Taylor, and beyond. Chuck and his team of Master-level inspectors maintain five-star ratings across Google, Facebook, and Yelp, along with BBB accreditation and an A+ rating. The team’s philosophy centers on assembling a team of licensed professionals tailored to each inspection, often with 2 to 3 sets of expert eyes evaluating the property simultaneously to ensure both speed and accuracy.
Austin sits on some of Texas's most reactive clay soils. As moisture levels shift through the seasons, the ground expands and contracts — placing ongoing stress on home foundations. This can result in cracking walls, uneven floors, sticking doors and windows, and gaps around trim and framing. It is one of the most frequently identified concerns in Austin-area home inspections and one that requires an experienced eye to evaluate accurately.
With summer temperatures regularly exceeding 100 degrees, Austin's heating and cooling systems work harder — and wear out faster — than in most other U.S. markets. Our inspectors closely evaluate the age, condition, and performance of every HVAC system, because a failing unit in a Central Texas summer is not just uncomfortable, it is a significant expense.
Historic Central Austin neighborhoods like Hyde Park, Bouldin Creek, South Congress, and Travis Heights are full of character — and in some cases, full of outdated infrastructure. Galvanized pipes, aging electrical panels, and deferred maintenance are common findings in homes built before the 1980s. Our inspectors are experienced with these construction styles and know where to look.
Austin's periodic severe weather and flash flood risk make site drainage a critical inspection item. Poor grading, failing gutters, and inadequate downspout routing can lead to water intrusion at the foundation or in crawl spaces. Our team evaluates drainage conditions on every property.
Central Texas's warm climate means termites and other wood-destroying organisms are active throughout the year — not just in the warmer months. Subterranean termites in particular pose a consistent threat to Austin-area homes, and a certified WDO inspection is often required by lenders for VA and FHA financing.
Austin's explosive growth has produced a wave of new builds across the metro. New construction does not guarantee a defect-free home. Builder errors at the framing, plumbing, electrical, and finish stages are common findings — and far easier to address before drywall goes up or a warranty expires.
Austin’s housing market is unlike any other in Texas. From rapidly expanding new construction corridors in Pflugerville and Round Rock to century-old bungalows in Hyde Park and Travis Heights, the homes in this market are as diverse as the people buying them. That diversity — combined with Central Texas’s unique climate, soil conditions, and growth pace — means local knowledge is not optional when it comes to a thorough home inspection. HomeTeam of Austin brings both national standards and genuine regional expertise to every property we inspect.
Detects hidden moisture intrusion, electrical hot spots, and insulation gaps invisible to the naked eye.
