Blue Tape Walk-Through

Buying a new construction home is an exciting milestone. Before you move in, it’s crucial to ensure everything is just right. That’s where a blue tape walk-through comes in. At The Inspection Co., we specialize in helping home buyers identify issues—big and small—so your home is perfect on move-in day.

Here’s everything you need to know about our blue tape walk-through service.

What Is a Blue Tape Walk-Through?

A blue tape walk-through is a detailed inspection of your newly built home. We go room by room, marking any flaws or unfinished areas with blue painter’s tape, ensuring they can be addressed before closing.

This process isn’t just about aesthetics. While we do identify cosmetic issues like paint imperfections and misaligned trim, we also check for functional problems, such as improperly installed fixtures or uneven flooring.

At The Inspection Co., we know how important it is to protect your investment, which is why we offer this service to homeowners, builders, and realtors in Greensboro, High Point, Winston-Salem, and surrounding areas.

Why Is a Blue Tape Walk-Through Important?

New construction homes are complex projects, and even the most reputable builders can overlook details. Here’s why a blue tape walk-through is essential:

• 🛠️ Catch Problems Early: Addressing issues before closing ensures your builder can fix them at no additional cost to you.
• 💰 Save Money: Cosmetic and functional repairs can be costly once you’ve moved in.
• ✅ Peace of Mind: Walk into your new home knowing it’s exactly how you envisioned it.
