Absolutely.
No home is perfect, and even if you trust your builder, they’re not the one hammering the nails and slapping on shingles…it’s the sub-contractors he hires.
The builder will probably not be aware of the problems that will be found, but they will be happy to fix them.
Common problems found are:
- leaking pipes
- bad wiring
- poor shingle installation
- furnace problems
- air conditioner problems
That’s just a start…last year I went into 2 BRAND NEW homes that had NO insulation in the attic.
Always get a new home inspected. The cost and headache of dealing with messy problems later are more than worth the investment in ensuring that doesn’t happen to you.
