"I have a new home warranty, why get a Home Inspection?"


As the closing papers are flying by for a signature many home buyers "sign off" on items in the home that are missing, broken or may not be working correctly. The builder promises to make good but things come up, time passes and nothing gets done. You may not know it but the moment you take possession of your new home there is a long list of items your new home warranty does not cover and the builder may not be responsible to repair.


Commonly defects found during new home inspections:

  • Plumbing fixtures that do not operate correctly
  • Reversed wiring of electrical circuits and components
  • Non-working electrical circuits
  • Improperly sized circuit breakers
  • Missing attic insulation
  • Problems with heating and/or cooling systems
  • Leaking gas lines
  • Blocked waste drain lines
  • Leaking plumbing fixtures
  • Broken windows
  • Non-working heating ducts
  • Improperly installed appliances
  • The list goes on and on ................

New home inspections are not just about cosmetic items or "punch lists". They are about checking behind every contractor to see what was possibly missed, poorly installed, what works and what doesn't. The home inspector in many cases may be the first person to have everything running in the house for the first time at the same time.

By having your new home inspected prior to closing it can reveal many issues before you move in and give you extra peace of mind about your new home.
