11-Month Warranty Inspection in Celebration, FL

Yes. Thermal imaging allows us to detect moisture and insulation deficiencies behind walls and ceilings that look fine from the outside. Celebration's strict aesthetic standards mean builders sometimes prioritize appearance over proper installation. Our inspection goes well beyond the surface, we evaluate roofing, mechanical systems, structural components, and envelope integrity regardless of how the exterior looks.

Schedule at least 60 days before your warranty anniversary date. That window gives your builder enough time to respond to our findings, schedule repairs, and complete the work before the deadline. In Celebration, where builder communication can move slowly through community management channels, starting early is especially important. We deliver your report the same day, so you're not waiting on us.

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.
