New Construction Inspections

The value of involving an independent third party to inspect your new construction project cannot be overstated!

Mistakes happen all the time in new home construction...and the trend is getting worse not better. Key causes:

• Misinformed or lazy sub-contractors
• Contractors with overlapping responsibilities
• Supervisors with too many details to oversee
• On-site modifications for a variety of reasons
• Mistakes or omissions in plans

Don't take it for granted that the builder (any builder) is complying with acceptable building practices, using quality craftsmanship, or keeping your safety in mind.  Engage a third party to look out for your interests at specific stages of the construction process.

Home Status Inspection Company offers Two Key Inspections for New Home Construction:

Pre-drywall inspection - This inspection gives you a final review of the framing and roughed-in systems of the house before drywall is put up.   This is particularly important because issues can be more easily seen and addressed at this time.  This inspection covers all major structural components and mechanical systems installed.

Final walk-through inspection - This inspection is performed just before final walk through with the builder.  The house is essentially completed; however, issues arising during final walk-through can be addressed by the builder prior to closing.  This inspection also gives the new buyers important information on the systems, operation, and maintenance of their new home.

Most builders welcome home inspector involvement in the project because they help find mistakes, help boost the buyers confidence in the quality of their workmanship, and help educate the buyer about the home building process. Home Status Inspection Company offers a $100.00 discount when both inspections are ordered on a new home.
