Re new construction and walk away clients. They were able to see construction before drywall installed? What issues did you see?

On one, no top plates on a second story gable wall above an 18 foot garage door opening. Builder rep said it was acceptable because that’s how they build all of them. On another, the builder cut 16 pairs of rafters short of the ridge board and shimmed the gap with EPS board, refusi g to replace them. Another one had the drain opening for the master bathroom tub in the master bedroom closet. Two others just bad spacing and use of utility grade lumber for framing. One used a water-damaged LVL beam that was delaminating. The list is endless.
