New construction homes typically come with a “One Year Limited Warranty”. Some items listed under this warranty may or may not be visible to the inexperienced eye. Some of the more common items generally are revealed during this type of inspection and may include:
- improper drainage around the foundation,
- improperly installed roof covering and/or flashing details,
- water intrusion problems,
- plumbing leaks, and
- improper wiring of electrical receptacles, switches and/or fixtures.
