New Construction Framing Inspection Phoenix AZ
Ensure your new home is built right from the frame up. At Leading Edge Inspections, we specialize in New Construction Framing Inspection in Phoenix AZ, Mesa AZ, Gilbert AZ, and Scottsdale AZ—catching issues early, before drywall goes up.
We also offer a full New Home Inspection in Phoenix for those nearing the final stage of the build process. Pairing both inspections ensures nothing gets missed from foundation to finishes.
Why A Framing (Pre‑Drywall) Inspection Is A Smart Move
-
Catch structural issues early – you can address them before walls are closed.
-
Verify plumbing, electrical, HVAC rough-ins – avoid costly rework later.
-
Stay ahead of code violations – we check against City of Phoenix and IRC standards.
Many homeowners who schedule this inspection also take advantage of our 1-Year Warranty Inspection near the end of their builder warranty to catch post-move-in defects.
