Ensure You Get the Full Value of Your Warranty
Your new home likely came with a one-year builder’s warranty. A New Home Warranty Inspection is performed at the 11-month mark. This is your last chance to identify defects missed during construction or caused by settling. Ensure the builder is responsible for the repairs, not you.
The Imagine Advantage: Builder-Specific Knowledge
Dan’s 25 years in the home renovation industry is invaluable here. He knows the areas where builders often cut corners or where settling defects are most likely to appear after the first year of ownership. We provide the comprehensive, objective documentation you need to submit a strong, irrefutable claim.
Your Simple Inspection Process
1. Timed Assessment: We schedule the inspection well before the one-year deadline to allow you time to submit the findings.
2, Defect Documentation: We meticulously document every deficiency, using photos and thermal imaging to prove the defect exists.
3. Claim Support: You receive the comprehensive report to submit directly to your home warranty provider or builder for necessary repairs.
What We Inspect: Identifying defects covered by the warranty
- Settling Issues – Assessing structural defects, significant cracking, and settling around foundations, windows, and doors.
- System Integrity – Checking for failures or deficiencies in the HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems that should not occur in a new build.
- Finishing & Fit – Documenting defects in finishes, such as drywall cracks, faulty grout, failing caulking, and millwork fit and finish issues.
- Complimentary Thermal Imaging is included – to spot insulation gaps, latent moisture issues, or active plumbing leaks that are often hidden behind walls.
Finish Your Home Inspection the Right Way: Add a Sewer Scope
This is the most essential and highly recommended upgrade to your standard home inspection. By identifying a major sewer issue before you finalize your purchase, you gain the leverage to negotiate repairs with the seller — and protect yourself from one of the most expensive unexpected costs in homeownership.
For a small additional fee, you get clarity and confidence in what’s happening below the surface.
If defects are found, we can connect you with one of our vetted Trusted Trades partners for immediate repair quotes. And if you’d rather not coordinate the next steps yourself, our Home Renovation Evaluation and Concierge Services can manage the entire repair process for you.
