Your builder's warranty won't last forever. We inspect the home before it expires — often around the 11-month mark — so defects get documented while they're still the builder's responsibility.
Most builder warranties run for a limited window, and once it closes, defects become your problem instead of the builder's. A builder warranty inspection from Highland Property Services gives your home a thorough review before that window shuts — often around the 11-month mark — so issues are documented while they can still be corrected at no cost to you.
Danny and Thomas inspect together, so two experienced sets of eyes go over the systems and finishes that a first year of living has put to the test. Danny's decades as a licensed contractor mean he knows the difference between normal settling and a genuine defect the builder should stand behind.
You get a concise, same-day digital report with color photos and plain-language explanations — a clear list you can submit to your builder before your warranty runs out.
Here's what inspecting before the warranty ends does for you.
Defects documented before the warranty expires are the builder's responsibility, not your expense.
A photo-documented list you can submit to your builder while there's still time to act.
Danny and Thomas both on site means more gets caught after your first year in the home.
Findings you can send to your builder the same day, well before the deadline.
A builder warranty inspection is a race against the calendar. Many warranties cover the first year, so an inspection near the 11-month mark gives you time to document defects and submit them while the builder is still obligated to make them right.
Danny's background as a licensed contractor means he knows what a home should look like after a year of settling and use, and which issues a builder is genuinely responsible for. We document everything clearly so nothing gets brushed aside as it goes to the builder.
Whether your home has held up beautifully or developed a list of items, you'll have photos and a written record in hand before your coverage ends — so any covered defects are fixed on the builder's dime, not yours.
Every warranty inspection reviews how the home has held up over its first year.
Before your builder's warranty expires — often the coverage runs a year, so many owners schedule around the 11-month mark. That timing leaves room to document defects and submit them while they're still covered.
Because once the warranty expires, covered defects become your expense. Inspecting while coverage is still active means the builder is responsible for correcting what we find.
No — we inspect and document only. We find and photograph issues and recommend they be addressed, then you submit the list and your builder handles the covered work.
Settling cracks, caulking and finish separations, plumbing or HVAC quirks, and workmanship items that a first year of living reveals. We sort out what's normal from what the builder should stand behind.
Typically the same day. Your digital report includes color photos and clear explanations, so you can submit a clear list to your builder well before your warranty deadline.
