Actual report photos
Would you have caught these before closing?
What was observed: A roof ridge detail was visibly missing at the roof covering.
Why it matters: Open or incomplete roof details can create a path for water intrusion and premature deterioration.
Recommended next step: Have a qualified roofing contractor evaluate the area and correct the roof detail.
What was observed: The outdoor heat pump unit was not sitting level and the support appeared distorted.
Why it matters: Poor support can affect drainage, connections, and long-term equipment performance.
Recommended next step: Have an HVAC professional evaluate the unit support and installation condition.
What was observed: Loose wiring was visible inside the electrical panel.
Why it matters: Loose electrical connections can overheat and create safety concerns.
Recommended next step: Have a licensed electrician evaluate the panel and make corrections as needed.
What was observed: The attic access area was missing a finished curb or protective detail.
Why it matters: Incomplete attic access details can affect insulation performance, air movement, and safe access.
Recommended next step: Have the builder or a qualified contractor complete the attic access detail.
What was observed: A sharp carpet tack strip was exposed at a flooring edge.
Why it matters: Exposed tack strips can create a foot injury concern, especially in regular walking areas.
Recommended next step: Have the flooring edge properly secured, covered, or finished.
What was observed: Loose bolts or hardware were visible at the garage door assembly.
Why it matters: Garage doors are heavy moving systems, and loose components can affect operation and safety.
Recommended next step: Have a qualified garage door technician evaluate and secure the hardware.
