Construction Code
Comprehensive pre-pour foundation, pre-drywall framing/MEP, final and warranty inspections to cover the major stages of new home construction. 3rd party insulation and wallboard inspection services available as well.
Commercial
As professional commercial realty inspectors we can perform a Property Condition Assessment (PCA). You will receive a Property Condition Report (PCR) performed to ASTM E2018-15 standards.
Wood-Destroying Insect Inspections
Termites are ubiquitous in Texas. The WDI report includes a perimeter drawing with conducive conditions and any previous and active infestations found.
Optional Systems
It's not just residential and commercial structures inspected. Services also include pools, hot tubs, wells (with water testing), septic systems, zip level measurements, outbuildings, framing, insulation, wallboard inspections and more.
Extras to include
Air quality report: Check the VOC, particulate matter and CO2 levels
Repair estimate: Take the inspection report and get a comprehensive estimate for repairs. Great for tight option periods!
I just wanted to take a second to thank you for the work you do. I deal with countless 3rd party inspectors and I have never seen anyone that comes close to you in terms of code interpretation and accuracy of addressed deficiencies. Most other inspectors fill their reports with what I like to call 'garbage' and 25-50% of their items do not need to be addressed or are flat out wrong in terms of interpretation. Every report I have received from you has been spot on and you have even caught things that both my inspectors and me had missed. Keep up the good work!
More than an inspector.
An advocate.
Before you can inspect it, you have to know how it works.
Casey Callais was raised fixing up old houses down in Beaumont, Texas. His father put him to work remodeling as soon as he could swing a hammer. Those skills carried him through four years of university studies and then around the world, eventually settling in Nicaragua working for a non-profit organization constructing schools and libraries. Over time he settled and started a family before he and his wife decided to move back to Texas to improve opportunities for their kids. When not working, he spends time studying code books for fun. Today all of Casey's experience brings a special focus to the specific needs of each client of his small business, Constructiva Realty Inspections.

Good morning, Casey, Thank you for your thorough inspection, a quality secondary inspection really helps me evaluate my staff and see the areas where they can improve. If you ever want a job with great benefits and advancement opportunities let me know!
The report was excellent. I forwarded it to my building manager that next morning and he fixed up (almost) everything before closing. He was actually super appreciative of the report, he said he wished all his customers used you as their 3rd party inspector :)
