11-MONTH WARRANTY INSPECTION
Most builders offer a new construction home warranty on all new construction. Typically, these warranties are good for the first year of homeownership. Before this warranty expires, schedule an 11-month inspection. Major construction flaws in new homes often go unnoticed for three to five years. Our professional residential inspectors will review all major systems as well as test all mechanical components. We will provide a written report that you can present to your builder, while your home is still under warranty.
