Don't Let Your Builder's 1-Year Warranty Expire Unchecked
Most newly constructed homes in Texas come with a 1-year builder warranty that covers workmanship and materials. After day 365, the builder is no longer responsible for minor or moderate defects.
Why You Need an Independent Inspector Before Month 12:
- Thermal Movement: After four seasons of Texas weather, your home has settled, expanding joints and testing insulation seals.
- Attic & Roof Hidden Flaws: Improper flashing, unsealed ductwork, or disconnected bathroom exhaust vents in the attic.
- HVAC Ductwork & Air Balance: Imbalances in airflow that cause uneven cooling during peak summer heat.
- Plumbing Leaks Behind Walls: Slow pinhole leaks under vanities or tubs that haven't manifested visibly yet.
