Why Your Newly-Built Home Needs an Inspection

Building a new home makes for an exciting time in your life, one that is fraught with decisions and eager anticipation. One of the best decisions you can make as the soon-to-be-owner of a newly-built home is to secure your investment with a new construction inspection. GreenLInk Home Inspections brings 25 years of experience to the table and will help ensure that your new home doesn’t come with any avoidable flaws. Let’s look at why you should have a new construction inspection.

Brand New Homes Can Have Flaws

Newly-built homes aren’t perfect and can still have flaws – builders and contractors are human, after all! There are some issues often found at new home inspections, such as grading or drainage issues, cracks in the drywall, nails popping, inadequate electrical wiring, improper installation of plumbing fixtures, and more. Many other issues that are commonly found wouldn’t be visible at a basic home inspection.

Get Your Problems Fixed on the Builder’s Dime

You need to stay on top of protecting your investment because nobody else has the same interest in your new home as you. With a new construction inspection, you can know that your home is being built well and that the builder will resolve issues. At GreenLInk Home Inspections, we are professional engineers who are well-versed in structural integrity issues and know the ins and outs of the entire build process.

Timeliness Matters for Inspecting New Builds

An additional option we provide is to inspect your home before the end of the one-year warranty for new construction. This will be used as a punch list for your builder to resolve any issues or flaws uncovered before your warranty is up and you become financially responsible. Our expertise in code requirements and construction techniques can be a valuable asset at this point in your home ownership.
