Confirm Your Deadline
Check the builder’s warranty terms and leave enough time for the inspection, report review, and submission.
Before your builder-warranty deadline
After living in a newly constructed home for several months, conditions may appear that were not visible or noticeable at completion. An 11-month warranty inspection gives you time to identify and document concerns before your builder-warranty deadline.
What it includes
Do not wait until the warranty deadline is approaching to discover concerns.
The inspection reviews the home’s major systems and components for visible workmanship concerns, settlement-related conditions, moisture issues, electrical, plumbing or HVAC concerns, exterior conditions, and other defects or deficiencies that may have become apparent after move-in.
Homeowners approaching the end of a builder-warranty period can use this inspection to better understand the home’s condition before submitting concerns through the builder’s warranty process.
Living in the home through changing weather and normal operating cycles can reveal conditions that were not noticeable at completion. Scheduling early provides time to review the findings and submit concerns before the builder’s deadline.
