PHASE 2 — PRE-DRYWALL
AAA Complete Home Inspections, LLC | Nashville & Middle Tennessee
Phase 2 Pre-Drywall / Framing Inspection for New Construction in Nashville & Middle Tennessee
A Phase 2 Pre-Drywall / Framing Inspection gives you a critical look at your new construction home before insulation and drywall are installed. This phase allows major structural components and rough-in systems to be evaluated while they are still visible, helping reduce the risk of hidden issues later.
At AAA Complete Home Inspections, LLC, Jason provides Phase 2 pre-drywall inspections for new construction homes throughout Nashville, Gallatin, Mt. Juliet, Hendersonville, and surrounding Middle Tennessee communities. This inspection helps buyers confirm that framing and core systems are progressing correctly before walls are closed and finishes begin.
What Is a Phase 2 Pre-Drywall Inspection?
A Phase 2 inspection is performed after framing and rough-ins for plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems are complete, but before insulation and drywall installation. Once drywall is installed, many of these components are no longer accessible for visual evaluation.
This inspection focuses on visible construction elements to help ensure the home is structurally ready to move into the final stages of construction.
Why a Pre-Drywall Inspection Matters
Issues discovered after drywall installation are often more expensive and disruptive to correct. A pre-drywall inspection helps identify concerns early, when corrections are typically easier for builders to address.
A Phase 2 inspection can help:
Identify framing or installation issues early
Review visible plumbing, electrical, and HVAC rough-ins
Confirm structural layout and load paths
Document construction progress before drywall
Reduce the risk of hidden defects later
What Is Evaluated During a Phase 2 Inspection
A Phase 2 Pre-Drywall Inspection includes a visual review of accessible components, which may include:
Wall, floor, and roof framing
Structural connections, fasteners, and supports
Plumbing rough-ins and venting
Electrical wiring and panel placement
HVAC ducting and system layout
Findings are documented with photos and clear explanations so you understand what was observed and why it matters.
