Take Control with Clear Evidence.
As your new home settles, issues that weren't visible at handover can begin to emerge. Materials naturally dry and shrink during the first months of occupation, while everyday use can reveal defects that only become noticeable over time.
Problems such as cracking, movement, poor ventilation, insulation gaps and other workmanship issues often appear during the first two years, which is why many homeowners only discover concerns as they approach the end of their builder's warranty period.
We independently assess whether your home has been constructed to the standard promised and help you distinguish between normal settlement and defects that need addressing by the developer.
Common Issues
Identify these issues with a homeperform End of Warranty survey
Identifying and documenting these issues before the builder's two-year responsibility period expires helps ensure any defects can be raised with the developer while they may still be responsible for resolving them.
Common issues during the first two years:
-
Settlement cracking to walls and ceilings
-
Poor finishing or workmanship defects that become more visible over time
-
Doors and windows that have dropped or become misaligned
-
Poorly sealed windows, doors or service penetrations
-
Plumbing leaks or poorly installed fittings
-
Ventilation systems that are not performing correctly, causing damp issues
-
Persistent cold spots caused by insulation gaps or thermal bridging
-
Drainage or external defects that were not obvious when the property was new

Any extraction inadequacies found will be detailed and evidenced in your survey.

Many homeowners are unaware that problems can develop or become visible over time as the property settles and is lived in.

An independent inspection helps distinguish between normal settlement and defects that should be addressed by the developer.
