New-Build Warranty Inspection
Understanding Your Builder Warranty: Protect Your Home with Tailored Home Inspections
Most new homes come with a standard 2-5-10 builder warranty, but many homeowners don’t realize that any issues must be reported within the warranty period in order to hold the builder responsible for repairs. In some cases, defects only become noticeable after the warranty has expired, leaving homeowners without options for recourse.
That’s where Tailored Home Inspections can help. Our experienced inspectors conduct a detailed evaluation of your property to identify potential builder defects and provide a comprehensive digital report outlining any concerns. This helps you catch issues early and protect your investment before time runs out.
If you’ve recently purchased a new build, scheduling an inspection is a smart step toward peace of mind.
Inspections typically take 3 to 3.5 hours to complete, with a full report delivered within 24 hours. We use advanced digital reporting software along with moisture meters and electrical testing equipment on every inspection to ensure accuracy and thoroughness.

- Plumbing system
