11th-Month Warranty Home Inspections In Wichita, KS & Surrounding Areas

A home inspector is trained to be a detective in regard to the construction and working parts of homes. It is not an exact science.

The home inspector cannot tear into things, so they can’t always see everything they’d like to. They do, however, come equipped with ladders, strong flashlights, and devices to measure various things related to plumbing, electrical and other necessary home items. Importantly, a home inspector will also typically photograph problems such as roof shingles not lying flat, signs of mildew from leaking pipes and construction that doesn’t comply with current building standards.

The 11th Month Warranty Home Inspection is to help you find any of the visible and apparent condition of the interior and exterior of the structure, including its major systems and components. 

This helps you by giving you the information needed to take any necessary steps to hold your home builder and their subcontractors to their warranties while they are still in place.

See the InterNACHI brochure on the 11 month warranty home inspection here.

FOUNDATION

The foundation is just that, the foundation. Without a quality foundation, movement can occur. We will thoroughly inspect the floor structure, framing, support. The foundation walls are inspected for cracking, movement as well as signs of moisture intrusion.
