New Construction Home Inspections in Chandler, AZ – Because Brand New Doesn’t Mean Perfect
Just because your Chandler home is brand new doesn’t mean it’s flawless. Even with local builders following code, mistakes happen—and they’re often hidden behind drywall or under shingles. That’s why a new construction home inspection is one of the smartest investments you can make before closing.
Why New Homes in Chandler Still Need Inspections
We’ve seen it all in new builds: misaligned roof trusses, faulty HVAC installs, grading issues, even missing insulation. Areas like Ocotillo and Fulton Ranch are booming with new developments, and while most contractors do their best, construction timelines and subcontractors can lead to overlooked details. Our inspections catch what the city might miss.
What We Check in a New Construction Inspection
- Framing & Structure: We verify that framing is done properly and that everything aligns with the plans and load requirements.
- Roof & Attic: Shingles, flashing, ventilation, and attic insulation—critical areas that often need adjustment.
- Electrical & Plumbing: Ensuring all fixtures are grounded, outlets are functional, and plumbing lines are leak-free.
- Grading & Drainage: Arizona homes need proper sloping to avoid pooling water—especially during monsoon season.
Pre-Drywall & Final Walkthrough Options
We offer two types of new construction inspections: one before drywall goes up, and one right before final walk-through or closing. Think of it like getting two test drives instead of one—you catch different things each time. If you're buying in areas like Sun Groves or Andersen Springs, this double-check gives you peace of mind before move-in day.
Already closed but still under warranty? We also offer 11-month inspections to catch warranty-covered issues before your builder responsibility expires.

FAQs
- Isn’t the city inspector checking everything?
- City inspections check for code compliance, not quality or workmanship. We dive deeper with your long-term safety in mind.
- What if my builder won’t let me get an inspection?
- Most reputable builders allow it. If not, we’ll help you communicate the request or suggest alternate inspection timing.
- Can I do just the final walkthrough inspection?
- Yes, although we recommend both pre-drywall and final. Even one inspection before closing is better than none.
- How do I schedule during construction?
- We’ll coordinate with your superintendent to choose the right days—usually once framing is complete and again before closing.
