11-Month Warranty Inspection in DeBary, FL

Yes, and this is one of the most common reasons DeBary clients call us. Lot grading and drainage defects often don't become visible until the rainy season, which in Florida can arrive well within your first year. If water is pooling near the foundation or stormwater isn't draining correctly, that's a builder defect we document in detail. Catching it during the warranty period keeps repair costs where they belong: with the builder.

We inspect homes throughout Volusia County including DeBary and surrounding communities like Orange City, DeLand, and Deltona. DeBary is well within our regular service area. We schedule Monday through Saturday from 8am to 8pm, and we deliver your full digital inspection report the same day. Call 407-205-7222 or visit squareinspections.com to book your inspection.

Schedule around month 10 to give yourself enough time to submit warranty claims and receive a builder response before the 12-month deadline. Don't wait until month 11; warranty administrators have processing timelines too.

We inspect all major systems and structural components covered by your builder warranty: HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roof, attic, foundation, exterior, and interior. We also document cosmetic defects that qualify under most warranties.

Our InterNACHI-certified inspectors produce professional, well-documented reports. Most builders honor valid warranty claims submitted before the deadline, especially when findings are clearly documented with photos and system references.

A closing-day inspection captures conditions at a single moment. The 11-month inspection catches defects that developed or worsened during your first year of occupancy, including HVAC wear, grading settlement, and moisture issues that take time to reveal themselves.

Frequently. Studies show new Central Florida homes average over 36 inspection findings. Builder timelines are tight, subcontractor quality varies significantly, and inspections during construction are often rushed. An independent inspection catches what builder quality control misses.

The scope is identical. We inspect every major system. The difference is the lens: we're looking specifically for construction defects, installation errors, and items covered under a builder warranty, and we format the report for warranty claim submission rather than negotiation.

The most frequent: inadequate attic ventilation, improper lot grading, missing or thin insulation, HVAC refrigerant line issues, reversed plumbing vents, improperly secured roof decking, and window installation defects. Each of these is typically covered under the builder's 1-year warranty.
