Residential

New Construction & Warranty Inspections

Independent inspections at each stage of the build, and a warranty walk before your builder's coverage ends.






Overview

New doesn't mean defect-free.

Municipal inspections check minimum code at a moment in time. We check workmanship, installation and details that are hidden once drywall goes up.

Findings go to you in a builder-ready format, so your punch list is specific, photographed and hard to dispute.

Questions

Frequently asked.

Something else? Send us a question.

Can I inspect a home the city already approved?

Yes. City inspections confirm minimum code. Ours looks at workmanship and installation quality in far more detail.

Will my builder allow a third-party inspection?

Most do. We coordinate site access with your builder and follow site safety rules.

When should I book the warranty inspection?

Around month ten, so the report is in your builder's hands before the warranty window closes.
