Pre-Delivery Inspections

Although new homes are protected under Tarion Warranty Corporation, they often contain defects. It is hard for municipal inspectors to inspect everything during construction. Builders also find it hard to check on construction trades throughout the construction phase. Pre-Delivery Inspections are completed just before you close on the property. This process consist of you inspecting the property with a representative of the builder, who will document the defects that you find & submit the inspection report on your behalf.
