The Importance of a 1-Year Warranty Inspection
Building your dream home comes with the assurance of a 1-year warranty, offering protection against unforeseen issues. To fully leverage this warranty and safeguard your investment, it’s essential to undergo a thorough inspection conducted by a licensed professional home inspector.
Overview of the Warranty
Builders typically provide a 1-2-10 warranty package, comprising a 1-year warranty on most home components, including HVAC, electrical, plumbing, roof, interior, and exterior. Specific items, such as select appliances, may carry a 2-year warranty, while the home foundation is covered for 10 years. Warranty terms vary by builder, necessitating confirmation of details.
Our home inspectors cover every aspect from interior to exterior, HVAC, roof, and more. This inspection provides a detailed overview of the property’s condition.
Key Inspection Points Include:
- Thorough evaluation of all home systems (HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing)
- Detailed assessment of interior and exterior components
- In-depth examination of attic and roof
Why Attend the Inspection?
We encourage homeowners to be present during the inspection, providing an opportunity to address concerns and questions that you’ve encountered over the past year. Comprehensive inspection findings, documented in a detailed report with accompanying pictures, can be presented to your builder. The findings and deficiencies that are covered under your warranty should be repaired or updated by the builder at no cost to you.
Scheduling Your Inspection
To ensure timely identification and resolution of any warranty-covered deficiencies, we recommend scheduling the inspection 10-14 days before the 1-year warranty expiration date.
Flexible scheduling options are available to accommodate your needs.
