"Country living on the southeast edge of Bexar County, from acreage homes to manufactured homes and new builds: Daniel Windler brings a Master Plumber's eye and 35 years in the trades to every China Grove inspection."
China Grove is a small, rural city on the southeast side of Bexar County, named for the chinaberry trees that once grew here. It offers something increasingly rare this close to San Antonio: room to breathe. Properties range from homes on an acre or more to manufactured homes on country lots and newer construction on land that was pasture not long ago, all within a short drive of Loop 1604 and I-10. For buyers who want space, a quieter pace, and easy access to the city, China Grove is an appealing option. ATD Property Inspections, owned and operated by Daniel Windler, a TREC Licensed Professional Inspector (#21665) and licensed Master Plumber, serves buyers, sellers, and homeowners throughout China Grove.
Rural properties often come with systems city homes don't have. Some homes rely on septic systems and private water wells instead of city service, and those systems are expensive to repair and impossible to judge from a walkthrough. As a certified septic inspector and licensed Master Plumber, Daniel can evaluate the septic tank and drain field and check the well's function during the same visit. For manufactured homes, he looks closely at the piers, tie-downs, skirting, and the plumbing and ductwork under the floor.
Country living brings a few other considerations. Barns, sheds, and wood structures near the home invite termites, which makes a licensed WDI inspection a smart addition. New homes going up on former farmland deserve phase inspections before walls close, and the area's clay soils put the same stress on foundations here as anywhere in the county. Daniel inspects the home and the property around it and explains every finding in plain language, with no unnecessary alarm and no sales pressure.

Yes. Daniel inspects the home above and below the floor, including piers, tie-downs, skirting, underbelly, and under-floor plumbing. If your lender requires an engineer's foundation certification, that's a separate service.
