There are good reasons to have a professional geotechnical inspection performed on the brand new home you are buying.  Buying a new house is likely one of the largest, if not the largest, purchase decisions youll ever make. The whole process is fraught with emotion and stress. A professional inspection will substantially reduce the risk for your large investment in a new property. It just makes sense to learn as much as you can about the quality of your new home, before signing off on everything.

Building a new home is a tremendously complex endeavor. It involves many people, usually split up into sub-contractor groups, each working on different parts and systems of the house. Even for the best builders, its nearly impossible to complete this process without missing something. Maybe its a retaining wall that didn't get water proofed, or loose wet soils that were not removed before pouring a new foundation or any one of dozens of other problems that can easily be overlooked in such a major undertaking. Such problems can have a significant impact on performance of the structure and any other improvements at the property.  We can be retained early on during construction of a new residence to catch any potential problems while it is still early enough to bring them up with the builder and have them corrected before you sign-off and start moving in.

A professional geotechnical inspection of your new dream home either while it is being constructed or afterwards can pay big dividends and a peace of mind by getting any problems identified and corrected before they can become an unpleasant surprise.
