Most builders offer a six-month or one-year warranty on a new home. We perform a full home inspection before the builder’s warranty expires. This assists with your getting the full value of repairs/issues resolved before the warranty is no longer valid. We generally get this scheduled a month prior to the expiration of the warranty.
We look for safety hazards in several areas in the home. The following are a few specific areas that are normally included, where accessible and safe to do so:
- plumbing systems
- electrical work
- floors & lighting
- roofs & gutters – vents
- foundation & drainage
- fireplaces & decks
- major appliances
- cabinets
- windows/doors
- grout/finishes
- exterior siding/stucco
- And MORE
This inspection is used to identify defects or concerns in a home that were not found before closing or that have happened during the homeownership. Use the report provided to notify the builder/warranty company of necessary repairs.
