A lot can happen in the first year of a new home and by this time you may have discovered many small (or not-so-small) things you have questions about with your new home. And what about the areas you have NOT looked like the attic and crawlspace? In Idaho, builders have an “implied warranty of workmanship and habitability” that exists for all new home constructions in Idaho. This is typically your final chance to document and request repair for any defects or items that may need correction prior to your warranty expiring. We refer to this as a 11 Month Home Warranty Inspection
Fair & Square Inspections, LLC works with buyers of new construction homes in Idaho, whose warranties are about to expire. This is similar to a buyer home inspection, where you’ll receive a professional, certified home inspection complete with a written HTML report full with images and comments documenting any issues present.
We’ll provide you with a summary of defects and recommendations that your builder may be responsible to fix. This often includes items that are deemed to be safety hazards and require immediate attention such as electrical, HVAC or plumbing issues.
If you’ve purchased a new construction home in the past year and you’re coming up on your 1-year anniversary, schedule an Inspection ahead of time so we can catch potential issues and protect your investment.
