What We Found in a New Construction Home in Loganville, GA (and Why You Need an Inspection)
Building New in Loganville? Here's Why You Still Need an Inspection
Hi, I’m David Lelak from IHI Home Inspections, and if you’re building or buying a brand-new home in Loganville, GA (Walton County), this message is for you.
New construction homes offer a lot—fresh finishes, modern layouts, and energy efficiency—but perfection? Not always. In fact, our most recent inspection in Loganville uncovered multiple red flags—and the house hadn’t even been lived in yet.
New Construction Problems: Loganville Case Study
Here’s what we found during our inspection of a newly constructed home in Loganville 30052:
1. 🧱 Roofing Issues: Damaged Shingles & Exposed Nails
Even on a new roof, we found damaged shingles and exposed nails—issues that invite water damage, poor insulation, and future repairs.
2. 🚧 Safety Missed: No Stair Handrails
Missing handrails? That’s not just cosmetic—it’s a liability. Especially in family homes, this kind of oversight can lead to falls and injuries.
3. 🚿 Leaking Tub Faucet
When the shower was turned on, the tub faucet leaked. Left unchecked, this kind of plumbing issue can hike up your water bill or cause floor damage.
4. 🚨 Loose Smoke Detector
We found a loose smoke detector in a bedroom—something that should never happen. Fire safety features must be installed correctly the first time.
Why Loganville Homebuyers Should Never Skip the Inspection
Loganville, like many parts of Walton County, faces climate conditions—humidity, shifting soil, and seasonal rain—that can expose flaws in construction quickly.
Buying a new home without an independent inspection is like driving off the lot without checking the brakes.
