About Us

WPI asks the question to those individuals who have purchased a new build
home.

Do you think that home builders build a flaw free home?

Now that you have lived in your new home for just about a year. You are
coming up on another important milestone, the ONE YEAR WARRANTY
period. This is where you will get with the builder and continue the minor
repairs on you new home. The ONE YEAR WARRANTY period is the time
between the final walk through / close of escrow and exactly one year from
the date of purchase of your new home. This inspection is usually done
about the 10 or 11 month after the close of escrow. By having a property
inspection prior to the 12th month will give you time enough to have an
inspection then give it to the builder and get those items repaired prior to
the 12th month. By using the property inspection, this is where you, the
home owner, will create a list of items that you want the builder to repair.
Some of these things that you may want the builder to repair are:

Stucco cracking,
Broken tiles on the roof,
Gaps in the stucco and adjacent materials that can let water into the
walls,
Adjust windows that may not work properly,
Drywall seams in the walls and ceiling that are cracking or have faulty
tape joints
Tile floor grout that is cracking, missing or has gaps around the
edges of the walls
Doors that may need adjustment to work properly

These and many more items will be looked at when you get a WPI ONE
YEAR WARRANTY inspection. On the average the new home has from 5 to
15 or perhaps even more building defects that were not caught in the
building process. A ONE YEAR WARRANTY home inspection will pay for
itself once those defects are found and the builder corrects the problems.

Why get a ONE YEAR WARRANTY INSPECTION at all?

The purchase of a new home may be the largest single investment you will
ever make. You should know exactly what to expect, inside and out in terms
of repair and maintenance before you buy.

Once you have been in that new home for about a year it is now time for the
home owner to get a thorough home inspection, prior to the builders
warranty period expiring. You as the buyer can never really know what kind
of defects that are in that new home. These defects may not show up for a
period of time. Our professional home inspection can help you find those
defects and get the builder to fix them before it causes you needlessly and
costly repairs.

After your WPI inspection, you will have a much clearer understanding of
what it is you need to request from the builder to repair before your new
home warranty period expires.
