NEW HOME CONSTRUCTION
INSPECTIONS

Building a new home is a major investment, but new construction does not necessarily mean defect-free construction. Independent inspections at key stages of the building process can identify visible concerns while components are accessible, before closing, and again before the builder’s warranty period expires.

Orgova Home Inspections provides independent new construction inspections throughout Central Florida, including pre-pour foundation inspections, pre-drywall phase inspections, final inspections before closing, and 11-month warranty inspections. Each stage provides a different opportunity to evaluate the home and document conditions that may need attention.

Having your own inspector provides an independent evaluation focused on your interests as the buyer or homeowner. Our goal is not to interfere with the construction process or determine whether the home is “perfect,” but to provide clear, objective information that helps you understand the condition of your new home and communicate documented concerns to the builder.

An independent inspection can provide valuable information at several stages of the construction process. Each inspection serves a different purpose based on what is accessible and where the home is in the building process.

PRE-POUR FOUNDATION INSPECTION

A pre-pour inspection takes place before the concrete slab is poured. Accessible foundation preparation, reinforcement, plumbing penetrations, vapor barrier, and other visible components are evaluated and documented before they are permanently concealed by concrete.

PRE-DRYWALL INSPECTION

A pre-drywall inspection takes place after many structural, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC components have been installed but before they are concealed by drywall and other finishes. This provides an opportunity to visually evaluate accessible components and document concerns while important areas of the home are still exposed.

FINAL / PRE-CLOSING INSPECTION

A final inspection is performed when construction is complete, typically before the buyer’s final walkthrough or closing. Scheduling the inspection after construction work is completed allows us to more thoroughly evaluate the home’s accessible systems and components for visible defects, incomplete work, installation concerns, and other conditions that may need attention before you take ownership.

11-MONTH WARRANTY INSPECTION

An 11-month warranty inspection is performed near the end of the builder’s initial warranty period. It provides an opportunity to evaluate the home after it has been occupied and operating through changing conditions, document concerns that may have developed or become apparent, and provide information you can use when communicating warranty items to the builder.
