Building a new home should bring peace of mind—but just because a home is brand new doesn’t mean it’s perfect. Construction defects, rushed workmanship, or missed code violations can lead to costly repairs down the line. At TRIO Inspections, we provide professional new construction inspections throughout Kelowna, Penticton, Vernon, and surrounding areas so that you can move into your home with confidence.
Whether you’re building your forever home or investing in new real estate, an independent inspection at key stages helps catch issues early—before they become long-term problems.
You might assume a new build is flawless—but even with building permits, city inspections, and experienced contractors, things can slip through the cracks. Builders work with multiple subcontractors on tight schedules, and not all defects are visible at a glance.
Common issues we find during new construction inspections include:
An independent inspection ensures that everything is done right the first time—protecting both your safety and your budget.
We offer inspections at multiple stages of the construction process to ensure quality and code compliance at every step.
This inspection is done before the walls are closed in with drywall—giving us access to the framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and insulation. It’s your best chance to identify problems while they’re still easy to fix.
Once the home is nearly complete, we perform a detailed inspection of all major systems, finishes, and components. This helps ensure the home is move-in ready and allows you to compile a punch list for the builder.
Most builders offer a 1-year warranty on workmanship and systems. This inspection is typically done during the 11th month of occupancy to find any developing issues so you can request repairs before the warranty expires.
We understand the excitement—and stress—of building a new home. Our job is to make sure you get what you paid for: a well-built, safe, and long-lasting home.
Even a brand-new home can come with surprises. TRIO Inspections offers comprehensive new construction inspections to help you avoid costly repairs, hold your builder accountable, and enjoy peace of mind. Contact us today to schedule your inspection at any phase of construction.
