Builder's Warranty Inspection

Houses Under Construction

why a builders warranty inspection?

Your home may be new, but that doesn't mean everything is perfect. During the first year, your home goes through a full cycle of seasons, temperature changes, settling, and everyday use; issues that weren't obvious at closing may begin to show. As your builder's one-year warranty approaches its expiration, now is the ideal time to have your home professionally inspected.

 

Even with quality builders and careful workmanship, homes can have incomplete work, installation issues, material defects, or problems that only become apparent after you've lived in the home for several months. Our goal is to identify visible defects, workmanship concerns, and maintenance issues while your builder may still be responsible for addressing them under the terms of your warranty.
