Many new construction projects can benefit from the services of a professional home inspector. Local building inspectors perform multiple inspections during a day. They do not have the time required to do a thorough inspection. They are also inspecting to minimum code requirements. Many potential problems that occur in a house could be avoided by surpassing the minimum code requirements.
New construction inpsections usually follow a three step progression. However, one or all of the inspecitons can be chosen.
The three steps are:
Foundation or Pre-Pour Inspection
This is performed before any concrete is poured and includes:
-Excavation, forms, footings, and rebar
-Moisture barriers
-Plumbing
Pre-Drywall Inspection
This inspection is performed after the concrete has been poured and after the structure of the house has been erected. This inspection includes:
-Foundation, framing, exterior sheathing, and siding
-Roof framing, deck sheathing, roofing material, and flashing
-Electrical rough-in
-Plumbing rough-in
FInal Inspection
This inspecitons is performed after the drywall has been hung and all the finish work is completed. This inspection includes:
-Trim and finish work
-Heating and air conditioning
-Plumbing operation
-Electrical system operation
-Windows and doors
-Numerous other components
