When the city or county comes to inspect your new home before the drywall goes in, they’re looking for minimum code compliance.
When we come to do a private pre-drywall inspection, we’re working on behalf of YOU, the buyer. That means that we’re going to make sure that the structure of your house is as close to perfect as possible.
Sometimes we’re pointing out things that would cause cosmetic issues, like minor cracks in concrete. Sometimes we’re finding things like broken, missing or improperly installed building materials that could cause big structural issues. A pre-drywall inspection is the only opportunity to find these kinds of defects.
While a pre-drywall, or structural inspection is not required, we strongly encourage it. A small investment now could mean peace of mind for years to come.
