Before the inspector arrives

Three things to confirm with your Ryan Homes team.

A short planning conversation helps keep the visit aligned with the construction schedule.

  1. 01
    Your inspection window

    Get rough-in, drywall, closing or warranty dates from your construction contact.

  2. 02
    Permission and access

    Confirm notice requirements and any inspector documentation needed for your homesite.

  3. 03
    Where the report should go

    Identify the construction or warranty contact who will discuss the documented findings.

A few practical answers

Before you book.

Can I book a third-party inspection?

Confirm your homesite's inspection window and access requirements with your Ryan Homes contact first. Share those details with our team so we can coordinate the appropriate visit.

What if I've already closed?

Ask about an 11th-month warranty inspection. Check the deadlines and submission requirements in your warranty documents and leave time to review and share any concerns.

Does the report guarantee repairs?

No. The report documents observations. Repair commitments and warranty coverage depend on your agreement with the builder and the applicable terms. Our inspectors can explain the findings.
