Windsor Home Inspection Services

Windsor is booming with new construction. From Water Valley to RainDance, we inspect all Windsor homes—and know what issues to look for in this fast-growing market.

Windsor Inspection Services

Expertise for Windsor's growing housing market

Full Home Inspection

Comprehensive evaluation of all major systems. Windsor has a high percentage of newer homes, but we also inspect established neighborhoods. We know what to look for in all eras.

New Construction

Critical in Windsor's booming market. City inspectors verify code—we verify quality. Multiple builders with varying standards means independent inspection is essential.

11-Month Warranty

Own a new Windsor home? Schedule before your builder's warranty expires. We document defects so you get free repairs—not surprise expenses after year one.

Radon Testing

Windsor sits in a region with elevated radon. New construction doesn't protect against radon—it comes from the ground. 48-hour continuous monitoring for accurate results.

Sewer Scope

Important for Windsor's established neighborhoods. Older areas have aging sewer infrastructure. $150 for video inspection from house to street.

Thermal Imaging

FREE with every inspection. Especially valuable for new construction where insulation gaps and moisture issues can hide behind fresh drywall.

Windsor: Northern Colorado's Boom Town

Windsor has transformed from a small agricultural town into one of Northern Colorado's fastest-growing communities. New master-planned developments have brought thousands of new homes—and with rapid growth comes the need for careful inspection.

Why New Construction Still Needs Inspection

Many Windsor buyers assume new homes don't need inspection. This is a costly mistake:

  • Volume pressure: Builders constructing dozens of homes simultaneously can't maintain perfect quality control
  • Subcontractor coordination: Multiple trades working quickly leads to oversights
  • Code vs. quality: City inspectors verify minimum standards, not craftsmanship
  • Hidden issues: Problems behind drywall won't be visible without proper inspection

New Construction Issues We Find

In Windsor's rapidly growing market, we regularly identify issues that buyers wouldn't find on their own:

Common New Home Defects

  • HVAC problems: Systems not properly commissioned, incorrect refrigerant charge, airflow issues
  • Grading and drainage: Water flowing toward foundation instead of away—extremely common in new subdivisions
  • Missing insulation: Gaps in attic, walls, or around penetrations
  • Window and door issues: Improper installation, missing hardware, failed seals
  • Plumbing concerns: Leaks, improper venting, water heater issues
  • Electrical defects: Missing covers, improper wiring, code violations
  • Flashing problems: Improper installation around roof penetrations, windows, doors

Why These Matter

These issues aren't just cosmetic. Drainage problems cause foundation damage. HVAC issues increase energy bills and reduce equipment life. Missing insulation affects comfort and efficiency. Catch them now while the builder is responsible.

11-Month Warranty Inspection: If you already own a new Windsor home, schedule your warranty inspection in month 11—before the builder's 1-year warranty expires. We document defects so you get free repairs instead of paying out of pocket.

Radon in Windsor

Windsor sits at the intersection of Larimer and Weld counties, both of which have elevated radon levels. Don't assume your new home is protected—radon comes from the ground beneath your home, not the construction materials.

Windsor Radon Facts

  • Many Windsor homes test above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L
  • New construction is not protected from radon
  • Basement and slab-on-grade homes both need testing
  • Radon levels can vary between neighboring homes

We use 48-hour continuous electronic monitoring for accurate results. If elevated radon is found, mitigation systems are effective and typically cost $1,000-$1,500.
