A pre-drywall inspection occurs right after the structural framing and rough-in work (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) are complete, but before the insulation and drywall are installed.  It acts as a "live X-ray" of your new home.  A pre-drywall inspection helps you catch costly hidden code or safety defects while the skeleton of the house is fully exposed.  Your inspector can even look to make sure your upgrades have been added.

                        WHY THIS INSPECTION MATTERS

​

EASY ACCESS TO FIX:   If a pipe is bent, a wire pierced, or framing is out                                              of plumb it takes minutes to fix now.  Tearing                                                    down walls later is incredibly expensive.

​​​

SELECTION VERIFICATION:  It's the perfect time to double-check that

                                           structural upgrades you paid for (extra outlets,     

                                           ceiling fan blocking, gas line, copper                                                                  plumbing) are actually installed before they get 

                                           covered.

​​​​

FUTURE MAPPING:   The photos taken during this inspection serve as a

                                    blueprint, letting you know exactly where all studs,

                                    pipes, and electrical cables are located for future

                                    projects.

 

 The Inspector evaluates the house from the foundation to the roof, ensuring all major trades did their work up to code.
