Not all soils are created equal! Soil strength and quality are critical to building a strong foundation for any home. At David Weekley Homes, we know it’s critical to give your homesite a valid soil test and inspection prior to building your dream home.

Land Survey

Surveying is the art and science of measuring, marking, recovering and mapping the relative positions or locations of terrain features and real property boundaries. A survey of your land is essential before the building process can begin. Through our Build on Your Lot program, we will conduct a professional survey of your land to determine property limits, as well as where the house, garage and other features will be located. Think of it as a blueprint confirmation!

Tree Survey

A tree survey is performed with the goal of providing useful information about the existing trees on your property. Items such as the species, physical measurement, ages, overall health and life expectancy of the trees are examined. Information like this helps our experts make informed decisions on about which trees we can keep, and which ones are potential problems. This is just another way we improve your homesite!

Our Build on Your Lot designers have the answers to those questions, they are experts in equipping your home with the right unit.

Inspections

During construction of your home a David Weekley Personal Builder oversees all work performed. Our construction professionals inspect the construction and quality of your home. Inspections are conducted at different stages by the jurisdiction in which the home is built. Your home must pass each inspection before construction can continue. This is just another way we get another set of eyes on your home! In addition, David Weekley Homes has professional, third-party inspections performed on: foundations, framing and mechanical systems, all plumbing systems and all energy components. This is to ensure, by an outside party, that we are building a house to code, and have met all the necessary standards. These tests and inspections help ensure your home meets the highest quality standards. Our energy-efficient new homes in Houston undergo additional inspections, specifically designed and monitored by Environments For Living^® - Gold level program.

Plat of New Home on Property

We want you to have all of the information about your plat of land, so we provide each and every new David Weekley Homeowner with a home location survey plat.
