Phoenix 11-Month Builder’s Warranty Inspection

Most builder warranties expire at one year. An 11-month warranty inspection documents every covered defect while the builder is still responsible, so the repairs come out of the builder’s pocket instead of yours. It is the highest-value inspection most new-home owners will ever buy.

Why the timing matters

A new home spends its first year settling, drying, and cycling through a full Arizona summer and monsoon season. That shakedown surfaces problems that were hidden at closing: settling cracks, roof and flashing issues, HVAC systems that never balanced, duct leaks, and moisture that thermal imaging reveals. Many major construction flaws go unnoticed for years, and by then the builder is off the hook and the repair is yours.

What the inspection covers

We inspect all major systems and operate the mechanical components, the same thorough 3 to 4 hour inspection we perform on any home, with thermal imaging included. Every visible defect is documented in a written report you can hand directly to your builder before your warranty deadline.

Do not let the window close

The builder probably will not remind you that your warranty is about to expire. Schedule in month 10 or 11 so there is time to submit your claim. Call or text (480) 250-1136 or schedule online 24/7.
