Document visible concerns before your applicable builder warranty expires.
Your first year in a new home gives you time to see how the property performs through everyday use and changing seasons. Conditions that were not apparent at closing may become easier to recognize after you move in.
An 11-month builder warranty inspection provides an independent evaluation of the home’s visible and accessible systems and components before the applicable warranty deadline. ParallaxAZ documents observed concerns in a clear digital report you can review with your builder.
If your home has a one-year builder warranty, plan the inspection during month 10 or early in month 11. Allow time to review the report, discuss concerns with your builder, and submit documentation before your applicable deadlines.
Review your purchase and warranty documents for the coverage periods, submission procedures, and expiration dates that apply to your home. Let us know your deadline when scheduling.
The inspection documents observed conditions. It does not determine whether an item is covered under your warranty.
We evaluate visible and accessible systems and components within the agreed inspection scope. The home’s features, accessibility, and conditions at the time of inspection determine what can be evaluated.
Thermal imaging, moisture-detection tools, photography, video, and drone-assisted roof observations may support the inspection when appropriate. Pool and spa inspections are available as an additional service.
A final new construction inspection evaluates a home near completion and before closing. An 11-month inspection takes place after months of regular use, when leaks, operational concerns, and changes in materials or finishes may be more apparent.
Even if you had an independent inspection before closing, another inspection gives you updated information about the home’s current condition. If you did not have a pre-closing inspection, this is an opportunity to obtain an independent assessment before the applicable warranty deadline.
Your digital inspection report documents observed conditions with photos, descriptions, and locations so you can understand the findings and discuss them with your builder.
Depending on the findings, the report includes safety-related observations, maintenance recommendations, and items that warrant correction or further evaluation by an appropriate professional.
Our goal is to deliver your completed report within 24 hours after the inspection. We can answer questions about the observations and recommendations in your report.
ParallaxAZ documents the home’s observed condition. We do not determine warranty coverage or require the builder to perform repairs. Review your warranty documents and discuss coverage and next steps with your builder.
