$2.5M New Construction Inspection

    par Niklass: Hole

    Man, a $2.5 million new build and already the primary shower enclosure is leaking in at least a couple places. The soap shelf slopes toward the wall instead of the drain, office doors need to be fixed, and kitchen receptacles are getting a GFCI check, but manually testing them isn't the proper way, you need to verify at the panel. Gas meter is hit, described as 'great.' Condensing unit has a hole cut in the flashing for the line set and conduit, no attempt to seal around it. Step flashing along the roof is short, should extend past the side wall to prevent voids in the wall cavity, good area for water, man. #Hole

    Be very quiet. Here's the primary shower enclosure on a 2.5 million dollar home. Leaking there. And also there. Golf ball test. That soap shelf should be sloped towards the drain instead of towards the wall. of towards the wall. Here are the office doors. That needs to be fixed. Kitchen area, checking receptacles, making sure they are GFCI protected. Normally these do trip when I manually test them, but that is not the proper way to test the GFCI. Need to go to the panel and verify. Oh this is great. Hits the gas meter. Perfect. Here's the condensing unit. You can see where they cut a hole in the flashing to run the line set and conduit. Didn't even try to seal around it. Step flashing details along the roof are short. That should extend past the side wall to prevent voids in the wall cavity like this. Good area for water.
