When building a new home, it's critical to have an inspection before the drywall goes up. A Pre-Drywall Inspection can identify potential problems with the framing, plumbing, and electrical systems in the home before it’s too late. It's also a good way to get an idea of what repairs may need to be made at this stage of the building process. By catching problems early, you can save yourself time and money down the road.  

What is Pre-Drywall Inspection?

Pre-drywall inspections are one way to make sure that a house was built in accordance with the plans. During the construction of a home, a pre-drywall inspection is completed immediately after the installation of the doors, windows, foundation, flooring, wall framing, roof, plumbing, and electrical rough-in, but before the drywall is hung. This construction-phase inspection is essential because once the new home is finished, drywall can cover up structural issues and wrong interior features, making detecting or addressing issues both challenging and expensive.
