1-year warranty
Inspection Overview
A 1-year warranty inspection is vital for homeowners approaching the end of their builder’s warranty. It uncovers defects, construction issues, and wear that may have developed since the home’s completion. Identifying problems before the warranty expires allows time to request necessary repairs or corrections from the builder at no cost.
Commonly, 15-25 issues are identified such as:
- Unnatural settling
- Nail popping
- Cracking in brick or stone
- Standing water
- Damaged sprinkler systems
- Loose fixtures
This proactive inspection helps safeguard the home’s structural integrity, ensuring issues are resolved before becoming more costly or complicated. By conducting this inspection, homeowners maximize the value of their builder’s warranty and avoid unexpected repair expenses, preserving their investment and maintaining the home’s overall quality.
