11th Month Warranty Inspection
11-Month Builder’s Warranty Inspection for Orlando, FL Homeowners: Protect Your Investment
As a homeowner in a newly constructed property, your investment is likely one of the biggest financial commitments you'll ever make. While a newly built home offers peace of mind, it also requires diligent care, especially when your builder’s warranty is approaching its expiration. One of the most important steps you can take to protect your home is scheduling an 11-Month Builder’s Warranty Inspection.
A.C.F. Home Inspections, serving the Orlando, FL area, offers expert, thorough inspections that identify issues before your builder’s warranty expires. This comprehensive inspection can save you from expensive repairs in the future and ensure that your home is in optimal condition.
Why is an 11-Month Builder’s Warranty Inspection Essential?
The 11-month warranty inspection is your last opportunity to identify and address problems covered by your builder’s warranty. New homes, despite being newly constructed, often develop issues over time as materials settle and systems start to function under regular use. These problems, if left undetected, can result in costly repairs after the warranty expires, leaving you financially responsible.
A professional 11-Month Builder’s Warranty Inspection ensures that you don’t miss any crucial issues that may not be immediately visible to the untrained eye. Common problems that can arise include:
Structural Issues
Cracks in the walls, ceilings, and foundation due to settling or shifting.
HVAC Problems
Inadequate installation or performance inefficiencies, like insufficient heating or cooling.
Plumbing Defects
Leaks, poor water pressure, and drainage issues that could cause damage over time.
Electrical Problems
Faulty wiring, non-code-compliant outlets, or malfunctioning electrical fixtures.
Roofing Issues
Missing shingles, poor ventilation, or leaks that could worsen during inclement weather.
These issues are often covered by your builder’s warranty, but only if they’re caught and reported before the warranty expires. This is where A.C.F. Home Inspections can make a difference.

"As a homeowner, your 11-month mark is a critical point in your builder's warranty. Many new homes develop issues as they are lived in and the systems are used, and it’s important to catch them early before they become expensive problems. Our 11-Month Builder’s Warranty Inspection provides you with peace of mind, knowing that the builder can address any defects while the warranty is still in place. Don’t wait until it’s too late—act now to protect your investment." — Luis Figueroa, Owner and Lead Inspector, A.C.F. Home Inspections

The Importance of Acting Before the Warranty Expires
The 11-month mark is a critical deadline for every new homebuyer. If issues aren’t reported and addressed before the builder’s warranty expires, those repairs will likely become your financial responsibility.
Don’t wait until it’s too late! Addressing issues now means you can make the most of your warranty and protect your investment for years to come. Waiting too long could mean missing out on your last chance to have these issues repaired without incurring out-of-pocket expenses.
How Scheduling Your 11-Month Warranty Inspection Can Save You Money
By identifying and addressing issues before the warranty expires, you’re preventing potentially expensive repairs down the line. For example:
Foundation problems can cost tens of thousands of dollars to fix.
Roofing issues can lead to leaks that may cause water damage to your home’s interior, leading to costly repairs.
Electrical or plumbing issues can pose safety hazards or lead to costly system failures.
The best way to avoid these financial burdens is to act before the warranty expires. Scheduling your 11-Month Builder’s Warranty Inspection with A.C.F. Home Inspections is a proactive step that can save you money and give you peace of mind.
