Why Do I Need A Home Inspection?
A Home Inspection is for your security and piece of mind. Whether you're buying or selling a home knowing its condition ensures you a fair and smooth transaction. Also, you need a Home Inspection because you (as a buyer or seller) may not know EVERYTHING you should about the condition of the roof, chimneys, siding, trim, attic ventilation, electrical wiring, plumbing furnace, and air conditioner. Or a great number of other items in the home.

Building A New Home
Whether you're building a custom home from the ground up or buying a brand-new home, that’s already finished, don’t you want to make sure it’s built correctly and that it meets current State and Municipal Building Codes? Southern Home Inspection Services can help you with that task!

At Southern Home Inspection Services we offer progressive inspections on new construction. In other words, we will inspect the home as it progresses from one stage to another. We start by doing a "Foundation Inspection". A quality home starts with a good foundation. Then, before the dry wall goes up, we conduct a "Framing Inspection". In this inspection we are looking to see that all load bearing and framing components were properly installed. Also, we’re examining the plumbing, electrical and HVAC rough-ins to insure that they meet current building code. Then when the house is complete, we conduct a final inspection on the home. In the "Final Inspection" we evaluate the entire home not only for building code compliance, but also for function and safety of the installed systems and components.

All of our Inspectors in our New Construction Division are CABO Certified. If the Inspector is going to evaluate building code violations they need to be building code certified (CABO certified). Also, when building code violations are found, our Inspectors will include the building code number being violated. This minimizes any confusion your builder might have with the inspection report.

Don’t build or buy new construction without an independent evaluation of the home.

Warranty Inspections On New Homes
When you purchased your new home, your builder provided you with a one year warranty guaranteeing most aspects of your new home for one full year. Wouldn’t it be wise to have an independent evaluation of the home conducted prior to the expiration of your builder’s warranty?

One of Southern Home Inspection Services CABO Certified inspectors will come out and spend between two to four hours evaluating your home from the foundation to the chimney. We will be looking for building code violations as well as do the installed systems and components of the home function properly. We will also be looking for safety issues with the home.

Our on site-generated report will be clear and concise, detailing all issues discovered and if building code violations are found our inspector will include the specific codes, by number, that are violated. This will minimize any confusion your builder might have with the inspection.

Why should you be left holding the bag on potentially expensive repairs when you could obtain an independent evaluation of the home and turn over any hidden problems to your builder to fix before your warranty expires?
