New Homes

After countless hours of searching and looking at houses you’ve finally decided to go with brand new one. Congratulations! Buying a new house is a very wise choice. The fact is houses have never been built better, safer or more efficient than they are today. A well built new home should provide years of comfort, convenience and happiness.

So, it’s new, surely you don’t need a new house inspection do you?

The fact is a house is a very complex machine. Hundreds of people will assemble thousands of items to produce the final product you will be paying for every month for the next 30 years.

Realistically, things get missed and forgotten during construction. Builders, no matter how competent or diligent, will miss things. This is simply inevitable given the tight profit margins they must work under in today’s highly competitive new house market.

But the county building official inspects the house as it’s being built so I don’t need a new house inspection do I?

True, county building inspectors will oversee the general construction of your new house. But, like most things with government agencies these days, there are budgets to meet and in the end something must suffer. If we can barely manage to fund schools for our children or police to keep us safe how much effort do you really think goes into any individual house?

So, what does a new house inspection from Crawford Inspection Services cover?
