New construction doesn’t always mean everything was done perfectly. During an 11-month builder warranty inspection, I found several loose roofing nails and screws left behind on the roof. While this may seem minor, construction debris can create avoidable problems.
Why Is This a Concern?
- Roof Damage: Loose metal debris can damage shingles if stepped on or pressed into the roofing material, potentially causing leaks.
- Gutter Issues: Rainwater can wash debris into gutters, contributing to blockages.
- Safety Hazards: Sharp objects can fall into yards and driveways, posing risks to people, pets, and vehicle tires.
Why Schedule an 11-Month Warranty Inspection?
Even newly built homes can have overlooked construction defects. An independent inspection helps identify and document issues while homeowners still have an opportunity to request repairs under their builder’s warranty. Small details matter when it comes to protecting your home!
