New Construction Inspections

---

New construction inspections are conducted at critical stages of the building process to ensure quality and compliance before components are concealed. These inspections typically include:​

• Plan Review: Assessment of construction plans for code compliance.​
   
• Footing and Foundation Inspection: Verification of foundational elements before pouring concrete.​
   
• Rough-In Inspections: Evaluation of framing, plumbing, and electrical systems prior to wall closure.​
   
• Insulation and Vapor Retarder Inspection: Ensuring proper installation of insulation materials and vapor retarders.​
   
• Final Inspection: Comprehensive review upon project completion to confirm readiness for occupancy.​
   

In many areas of Alaska, particularly outside major municipalities, independent inspections are required to qualify a building for financing. Even if a home is built without initial financing, inspections may be necessary to secure loans upon resale.​

We are fully licensed and bonded to perform both residential and commercial building inspections. Certified to complete PUR-101 and PUR-102 inspection forms, we proudly serve the Kenai Peninsula, from Homer to Cooper Landing.​

Alaska Home Inspector License #3

A building inspection—whether residential or commercial—is an objective, visual assessment of a property's structure and systems, from the roof down to the foundation. Think of it as a physical check-up for your home or business. The inspector documents safety concerns, maintenance needs, and visible structural deficiencies in a written report, helping owners, buyers, or sellers make informed decisions.

Our inspections cover all accessible components of the building, including:

• Heating and cooling systems
   
• Plumbing and electrical systems
   
• Roof, attic, and visible insulation
   
• Walls, ceilings, floors, windows, and doors
   
• Foundation, basement, and crawlspaces
   

All inspections are performed to ASHI Standards of Practice, ensuring our reports meet rigorous national guidelines for professional home inspection reporting.

No. An inspection is not a pass/fail test. It is not an appraisal that assigns market value, nor a municipal inspection that determines code compliance. Instead, a building inspection is an independent assessment of the property's current condition, identifying components that may require maintenance, repair, or replacement.

Absolutely—client attendance is highly recommended. Most clients find that attending the inspection makes the written report easier to understand and more valuable for future planning. Being present allows you to:

• Observe the inspector’s process
   
• Ask questions in real-time
   
• Learn about how your building’s systems work
   
• Get personalized maintenance tips
