"Fast-growing neighborhoods along the I-35 corridor near Retama Park: Daniel Windler brings a Master Plumber's eye and 35 years in the trades to every Selma inspection."
Selma is one of the fastest-changing communities on San Antonio's northeast side. The city stretches along I-35 near Loop 1604, reaching across Bexar, Comal, and Guadalupe counties, and it's home to Retama Park and a busy stretch of shopping and dining. What was once a small crossroads town is now surrounded by newer neighborhoods, with homes built mostly in the last 20 years and more going up all the time. Easy highway access toward both San Antonio and New Braunfels makes Selma popular with commuters and young families. 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 Selma.
Newer homes still need inspections. Fast-paced construction can leave behind missing insulation, loose plumbing connections, improper grading, and unfinished electrical work, and many of those problems don't show until the home has been lived in for a while. Phase inspections catch issues before walls are closed, and an 11-month warranty inspection documents defects while the builder is still responsible. Daniel's 35 years as a licensed Master Plumber and construction professional give him a builder's eye for what gets missed.
Newer neighborhoods on the area's clay soils are still settling, so a foundation elevation survey is a smart way to create a baseline and track movement over time. Many homes also have automatic sprinkler systems, and water spraying against the house or pooling along the slab can contribute to foundation problems. Daniel checks both and explains every finding in plain language, with no unnecessary alarm and no sales pressure.

Answers to the most common questions Selma homeowners ask before scheduling a property inspection.
More than most owners expect. Common findings include attic insulation gaps, roof flashing issues, grading that sends water toward the slab, and plumbing leaks under sinks.
A survey gives you a measured baseline of your floor levels. Comparing future surveys against it shows whether the foundation is stable or still moving.
If your water bill is high or you see dry spots and soggy areas, yes. Daniel runs each zone and checks for leaks, broken heads, and spray hitting the house.
