TREC Home Inspections

Our Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) home inspections provide a detailed, standards-based evaluation of a property’s visible and accessible components. This inspection is ideal for buyers who want a complete understanding of a home’s condition before purchase.


TREC inspections include evaluation of:

  • Structural systems
  • Roofing and exterior components
  • Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems
  • Interior components and insulation
  • Built-in appliances


Each inspection is documented in a clear, photo-supported report designed to help clients understand findings without unnecessary technical jargon.

Pre-Listing Home Inspections

A pre-listing inspection helps sellers prepare their home for the market with confidence. Identifying issues before listing allows you to address concerns proactively and avoid surprises during buyer negotiations.


Benefits of a pre-listing inspection include:

  • Fewer last-minute repair requests
  • Stronger negotiating position
  • More accurate pricing strategy
  • Increased buyer trust


This service is ideal for homeowners who want transparency and control throughout the selling process.

Insurance Inspections (VIP & WDR)

Securing or maintaining homeowners insurance can be challenging, particularly for properties with prior water claims or aging systems. We perform inspections under the Texas Voluntary Inspection Program (VIP) to help eligible homeowners demonstrate insurability.



If the home passes inspection, a Certificate of Insurability may be issued. When required, we also provide Water Damage Remediation (WDR-1) documentation for appliance-related water damage claims.


ADBJ Enterprises is certified through the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) and trusted by homeowners and insurance professionals throughout the Dallas area.

One-Year Builder’s Warranty Inspections

New construction homes typically include a one-year builder’s warranty, but defects must be identified and documented before the warranty expires.


Around the 10th or 11th month of ownership, we perform a comprehensive warranty inspection to identify:

  • Workmanship defects
  • Improper installations
  • System performance issues
  • Cosmetic and functional concerns


This inspection helps homeowners submit warranty claims with clear documentation before coverage ends.

Property Repair Evaluations

This service helps clients:

  • Plan renovation budgets

  • Evaluate investment potential


Repair evaluations provide practical insight—not inflated estimates—so you can make informed financial decisions.
