• Pre-Drywall Inspections

    Catch Construction Issues Before They’re Covered Up

    Buying a new construction home? A pre-drywall inspection is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your investment. At Uptown Home Inspections, we provide detailed evaluations during the early stages of the build—before the walls go up and problems become harder (and more expensive) to fix.

  • What Is a Pre-Drywall Inspection?

    A pre-drywall inspection is performed after framing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, and windows have been installed—but before insulation and drywall are in place. This gives us full visibility into the structure, systems, and workmanship of your home.

  • What We Look For:

    • Framing & Structural Alignment – Wall straightness, headers, trusses, sheathing

    • Roofing & Attic Framing – Proper connections, venting, underlayment

    • Window & Door Installation – Flashing, sealing, alignment

    • Plumbing Rough-In – Pipe placement, supports, drainage slope

    • Electrical Rough-In – Wiring safety, outlet spacing, panel setup

    • HVAC Rough-In – Duct placement, returns, condensation lines

    • Fire Blocking & Draft Stops – Building code compliance

    • Nail Plates & Protection – Proper safeguards for pipes and wiring

    • Foundation Issues – Anchor bolts, sill plate sealing, pier support

    • Moisture Intrusion Points – Flashing, wrap, and drainage details

    • General Workmanship – Signs of rushed or sloppy construction

    We flag code violations, quality concerns, and incomplete work while there’s still time to address them.
