WHAT IS REVIEWED

What we review

The home after use

Accessible systems and visible conditions are evaluated after the home has been occupied and used.

Your list of concerns

Share recurring problems, changes you have noticed, and prior builder repairs so the visit addresses your questions.

Documentation for discussion

Photos and descriptions help you present observed conditions to the builder without guessing about their cause.

What to know about the scope

The builder and warranty terms determine what is covered. The inspection does not establish warranty eligibility or require the builder to make a repair.

BEFORE THE VISIT

Before your inspection

  • Confirm your warranty expiration date and claim process.
  • Make a list of concerns and previously reported items.
  • Provide access to relevant systems and any available repair history.

ALL QUESTIONS WELCOME

11-Month Warranty Inspection
QUESTIONS, ANSWERED.

Must this happen exactly in month eleven?

No. The name describes a common planning window. Use your actual warranty deadline and leave enough time for notification and follow-up.

Does the inspector submit my warranty claim?

The inspection supplies condition documentation. Follow your builder's claim process and warranty terms for submission.

Should I share earlier repairs?

Yes. Earlier concerns, completed repairs, and recurring symptoms help focus the conversation and accessible review.

Can you return after the builder makes repairs?

Yes. Doug can return to reinspect agreed items after the builder has addressed them. The visit is separately priced based on the number of items and time involved, with the fee confirmed beforehand. The builder is responsible for completing repairs; the return visit checks the accessible items within the agreed scope.
