Many people mistakenly believe that building a brand-new home does not warrant an inspection. After all, any brand new house should be practically perfect! Unfortunately, that is not usually the case, and Americas Choice Inspections has seen it firsthand time and again. Let us show you how a new construction inspection could potentially save you thousands of dollars in future repairs.
Newly-built homes can have structural or mechanical issues that you wouldn't be able to identify without an inspection. An inspection of the new construction could find these issues that would eventually cost you thousands of dollars to repair. During our new construction inspections, we focus on the structure, foundation, HVAC and ductwork, insulation, doors and windows, the plumbing system, and electrical components.
Just after the installation of specific elements and right before the drywall is hung, there is a phase during the home building process that is referred to as "pre-drywall." At a pre-drywall inspection, our certified inspectors will check the foundation, wall and floor system, plumbing and electric rough-ins, HVAC, exterior wall covering, as well as roof covering and interior.
Many newly built homes include a 1-year warranty to cover any defects or damage that are found within your first year of living in the home. A new construction home warranty inspection will discover these issues since many of them are not always visible to the naked eye. Our certified home inspectors will look for defects in your home’s structure, appliances, and major systems such as plumbing, electrical, roofing, and more.
Americas Choice Inspections is equipped to help you understand the condition of the home you are building. Besides our new construction inspections, we offer general home inspections, pre-listing inspections, drone roof inspections, and many more specialized inspection services.
