Common New Build Issues You Can’t Afford to Miss!
Happy Thursday Everyone from Overview Property Inspection!
Common New Build Issues You Can’t Afford to Miss!
Hi, it’s Pierre from Overview Property Inspection. I just wrapped up an inspection on a new build, and let me tell you-there are hidden issues that can quickly turn into costly problems if they go unchecked. Here’s what you’ll see in the video:
🔍 Debris left behind - We found sharp objects like razor blades
in the basement. Imagine the danger for families with small kids!
💧 Leaks - Small now, but water damage can escalate fast. Don’t let it catch you off guard.
🔥 Missing fire barriers - Critical areas where drywall should protect your home. This is a serious fire hazard if ignored.
🌬️ Insulation gaps - Especially in the basement’s frost walls. These gaps lead to condensation, mold, and structural issues over time.
🏗️ Structural concerns - From spliced beams to disconnected braces, these shortcuts lead to uneven floors and costly repairs.
These are common in many new homes, but the real concern is what happens when they’re not addressed early. Watch the full video to see what you need to be aware of-and why having a third-party inspection before moving in is a must!
Right tools, Right Training, The Right Choice!

      They wired it for 120 for whatever reason. You can take the white wire loose from the neutral bus, mark it red, and land it on the open spot of the quad. Did they use #10? Most residential water heaters are rated for 4500 watts @240 volt. That's almost 19 amps. #12 is good for 20, but only 16 continuous.
