Highland Homes Frame Walk in Legacy (Before Drywall) – Full Inspection Tour
If you’re thinking about buying a new construction home in the Houston area, one of the most important stages of the build happens before drywall goes up — and most buyers never get to see it.
In this video, we walk a Highland Homes build in Legacy during the pre-drywall inspection. This is where you can see how the home is actually built, before everything gets covered up.
Whether you’re relocating to Houston or just moving across town, understanding this stage can help you make a better decision when choosing a builder and a home.

What Is a Frame Walk (Pre-Drywall Inspection)?
A frame walk happens after the home is framed but before insulation and drywall are installed.
At this stage, you can clearly see:
- Structural framing
- Electrical wiring
- Plumbing lines
- HVAC system layout
This is one of the only opportunities to verify how the home is built behind the walls.
What We Look For During This Inspection
During this Highland Homes frame walk in Legacy, we’re walking the home with an inspector and reviewing key areas like:
- Framing consistency and alignment
- Proper installation of wiring and plumbing
- HVAC placement and airflow design
- Areas that may need correction before drywall
Catching issues at this stage is significantly easier than after the home is finished.
Why Most Buyers Miss This Stage
Most buyers go straight to model homes — which are designed to show the finished product.
But by the time drywall is up, you can’t see how the home was actually built.
That’s why walking homes during construction can give you a huge advantage when choosing a builder.
