Request access to the job site at key milestones and ask your builder for documentation of framing, mechanical, and finishing inspections. The most important checkpoints include foundation and slab inspection, framing and shear wall verification, rough plumbing and electrical sign-off, insulation coverage review, and a pre-drywall walkthrough. Each stage should be photographed and documented before it gets covered by the next layer of construction. Ask to see inspection reports from your local building authority at each stage. Kingdom & Co. provides clients with a shared project portal that includes timestamped photos of every inspection milestone so homeowners can track quality even when they cannot visit the site.
