What is a Builder Warranty Inspection and do I need one? 

Once you’ve been living in your new home for a year, it’s advantageous to do an assessment of the property to see if any major changes have occurred. You’ve now lived in the house long enough to notice any superficial changes throughout the changing of the seasons and varying weather,. You’ve gotten a feel for it’s needs, but still certain things can go overlooked. Having an inspector take an in depth look could reveal cracks, leaks and potential hazards in your home. 

Issues like foundation cracks may not have been noticeable when you first purchased the home, or maybe they were covered up with a fresh coat of paint-- but now you’ve noticed some new cracks and you want to have a professional recommend if you’ll need the foundation fixed. 

Leaks, after months and months of not being addressed can cause damage, but left unfixed for years can become major money pits. Inspectors can run mold testing and point you in the right direction for mitigating the damage. 

For any new homeowner, you can’t afford not to have one!

Especially if your home is a brand new build, having a Builder Warranty inspection can prevent costly repairs down the line if you’re home was not built to today’s standards. It is not uncommon for even the most pristine, new builds to reveal defects within the first few years. If addressed quickly, resolving those small issues will help you avoid future headaches.
