Don’t let your builder’s one year warranty expire on your new home without having an 11th month warranty inspection done by Kina’ole Home Inspection Services . Many construction defects do not reveal themselves for a period of time until after the house has been lived in for some time. When you purchased your new home, your builder likely provided you with a one year warranty guaranteeing most aspects of your new home for one full year.
Remember, no one will remind you that your warranty is going to expire, so it’s your responsibility as the homeowner to contact the builder to inform them of items that need to be corrected. Normally the builder’s inspection is performed between the 8th and 11th month of the first year in your house. This is the perfect time to find any problems and have the builder correct them at no cost to you. Although most home owners have a list of items that need to be repaired, it’s important to have a trained professional also look over your home and inspect those places that are often overlooked, such as the crawlspace, attic, and roof. Having a builder’s warranty inspection done could save you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. Kina’ole Home Inspection Services can provide you with an independent evaluation of your home done by a professional home inspector. During this evaluation I examine your home from the foundation to the roof.
