Even brand-new homes can have hidden issues—inspections catch what builders miss.
Many homeowners assume that a new construction home means a perfect build — but that’s not always true. At AmeriCert Inspections, we uncover hidden issues in new Georgia homes every week.
Here are 5 common problems we find during new-build inspections:
1. Improper Grading and Drainage Water pooling near the foundation can lead to structural issues and basement leaks.
2. Roof Flashing Errors Poorly sealed flashing allows water infiltration, causing early roof damage.
3. HVAC Installation Mistakes Disconnected ducts or poorly sized units affect comfort and efficiency.
4. Insulation Gaps Missing insulation in attics or walls can cause temperature fluctuations and high energy bills.
5. Electrical Oversights Loose outlets, miswired GFCIs, or overloaded breakers can become safety hazards.
Even the best builders miss details. That’s why AmeriCert offers new construction inspections and 11-month warranty checks to protect your investment.
