Here's an overview of the Builder's Warranty Inspection process
Scheduling the Inspection
The homeowner or property owner schedules the inspection as the warranty period approaches its end. It's crucial to conduct the inspection before the warranty expires to ensure that any defects or issues are identified and addressed promptly.
Comprehensive Examination
The inspector conducts a thorough examination of the property, both inside and out. They inspect various aspects of the construction, including the structure, finishes, fixtures, systems, and overall workmanship.
Documentation Review
he inspector reviews the construction documentation, including the builder's warranty agreement, plans, permits, and any relevant contracts. This helps ensure that the inspection covers all areas and issues covered under the warranty.
Identification of Defects
During the inspection, the inspector identifies any defects or issues covered under the builder's warranty. This may include structural issues, problems with finishes or fixtures, faulty systems (such as plumbing or electrical), or other construction-related issues.
Documentation of Findings
The inspector documents their findings in a comprehensive report. This report typically includes photographs, descriptions of the defects or issues identified, and recommendations for remedial action.
Communication with the Builder
The homeowner or property owner communicates the findings of the inspection to the builder or construction company. They provide the inspection report detailing the identified defects and areas requiring attention.
Builder Rectification
The builder is responsible for rectifying the defects or issues covered under the warranty. They are typically given a specified period to complete the necessary repairs or remedial work to bring the property up to the required standard.
Follow-up Inspection
Once the builder has completed the necessary remedial work, a follow-up inspection may be conducted to ensure that all defects have been properly addressed and that the property now meets the required standard.
