New Construction & 11-Month Warranty Inspections

A newly built home doesn’t always guarantee perfection. Even with new construction, hidden issues may arise—ranging from roofing mistakes and plumbing leaks to foundation or insulation problems. At Northern Home Inspection, we offer comprehensive home inspection services, including new construction inspections, to help protect your investment from the beginning.

New Construction Inspections

Before finalizing the purchase of a new home, it is essential to have it examined by a certified professional. As an InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector®, I thoroughly evaluate all major systems and components to ensure that the home adheres to proper standards and that no defects were missed during the construction phase.

We inspect:

- Roofing & Attic

- Exterior Finishes & Drainage

- Foundation & Structure

- Plumbing Systems

- Electrical Systems

- Heating & Cooling (HVAC)

- Insulation & Ventilation

- Interior Walls, Floors, Doors & Windows

- Safety Devices

11-Month Warranty Inspections

Most new homes come with a builder’s 12-month warranty. Scheduling an inspection in the 11th month allows homeowners to document any issues before the warranty expires—ensuring that the builder, rather than the homeowner, is responsible for necessary repairs.

An 11-month warranty inspection provides:

- A complete report with photos and videos of any issues discovered

- Documentation to present to the builder for warranty repairs

- Peace of mind knowing that small problems are identified before they escalate
