New Construction Inspection

Don’t Assume New Means Perfect—Inspect Before You Close

Even newly built homes can have issues—missed code violations, poor craftsmanship, or rushed finishes. A professional new construction inspection helps you catch problems before move-in day, giving you leverage to address them with your builder while it still matters.



At Omega Home Inspections, we provide certified inspections for new homes across Marblehead and the Greater Boston area. Our inspections are unbiased, thorough, and always in your best interest.

What We Inspect in New Construction Homes

We evaluate major structural, mechanical, and safety systems in the property to ensure everything is properly installed and functioning:

Foundation and Framing

Roofing and Drainage

age,condition, roof penetrations, flashing, and drainage system

Building Exterior

Electrical Systems

Panels, breakers, outlets

Plumbing System

Each inspection concludes with a detailed digital report—including annotated photos, clear explanations, and recommended corrections—delivered within 24 hours.

Ideal Timing for a New Construction Inspection

  • Punch List Walk-through – Identify issues while your builder is still on site.
  • Pre-Drywall (Phase Inspection) – Optional early-stage inspection to catch structural or systems issues before walls are closed
  • Warranty Inspection (11-Month) – Ensure everything is still working as promised before the builder’s warranty expires

Omega found several issues our builder missed. The report was clear, fast, and helped us take action before move-in. Highly recommended!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is a new construction inspection necessary if the city already inspected the home?

    Yes. Municipal inspections often check only for code compliance. Our inspections are more detailed and focused on quality, functionality, and safety.

  • Can I attend the inspection?

    Yes. You're welcome to join and ask questions throughout the process.

  • What if the builder pushes back on findings?

    Many buyers use our report to support requests for repairs or corrections during the final walkthrough. We’re happy to clarify findings if needed.
