Pre-Drywall Inspection
Protect your investment with a pre-drywall inspection for new construction homes
A pre-drywall inspection is your chance to uncover issues before walls go up in your new construction home.
Our inspectors get an unobstructed view of:
- Framing: Ensuring it’s structurally sound and meets building codes.
- Electrical, Plumbing & HVAC: Checking for proper installation and safety.
- Exterior: Examining windows, doors, and other elements.
Why Get a Pre-drywall Inspection?
Even brand-new homes can have hidden issues. While builders strive for quality, mistakes can happen, and city inspections might not catch everything. A pre-drywall inspection gives you peace of mind and protects your investment.
Here’s why it’s worth considering:
- Catch Issues Early: Find potential problems before closing, giving you leverage to negotiate repairs with the builder.
- Detailed Inspection: We go beyond the standard city inspection, ensuring your home is built to the highest standards.
- Prevent Costly Surprises: Don’t let problems surface after you move in. An inspection helps you avoid unexpected repairs later.
Think of it as an extra layer of quality control. By investing in a new construction inspection, you’re protecting your home and ensuring a smoother move-in experience and long-term enjoyment of your new space.
We strongly recommend that new home buyers schedule a pre-drywall inspection to ensure that everything is up to par and that no oversights were made by the builders. It is the only opportunity to view the inner workings of the house before the installation of drywall or sheetrock.
