This open hole on the exterior wall was from the relocation of an air conditioning unit. Repairs of these types of holes should be made prior to insulation and drywall to prevent moisture an pests infiltration into the wall cavity.
This inspection should be performed after the city inspection but prior to your walk-through with the superintendent. This inspection allows us to visually inspect items that will not be visible once the insulation and drywall are installed. Corrections made at this phase of construction will eliminate future problems.
The key points of this pre-drywall inspection are:
Framing
Rough Electrical
Rough Plumbing
Rough Heating and Cooling
Concrete
Exterior Cladding
