Catching issues before the walls close up, during a pre-drywall inspection.
Why the pre-drywall stage matters
A pre-drywall inspection happens after the framing and rough-ins are done but before insulation and drywall cover everything up. It is the one and only chance to see the bones of the home, the structure, wiring, and plumbing, before they disappear behind the walls. Problems caught now are a quick fix; the same problems found later can mean tearing out finished walls.
What we check before the drywall goes up
Framing, structural connections, and obvious defects
Electrical rough-in, wiring runs, and box placement
Plumbing supply and drain lines, and their supports
HVAC rough-in and duct runs
Window and door flashing and weather barrier
Foundation penetrations and anything that will soon be hidden
Part of a smart new-build strategy
We recommend pairing the pre-drywall inspection with a final walkthrough inspection before closing and an 11-month builder warranty inspection before your first-year warranty ends. Together they cover a new home from the studs to the warranty deadline.

Watch: new build deficiencies we catch
The kind of issues that are easy to fix before drywall.
After framing, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC rough-ins are complete but before insulation and drywall are installed. Your builder can tell you when the home reaches that stage.
The municipal inspector checks for code minimums, not for your interests. An independent pre-drywall inspection looks out for you and gives you a report you can take straight to the builder.
