WHAT IS INCLUDED
Structural
The structure of your home is critical, so we spend a great deal of time on your home inspection thoroughly inspecting your home’s structure. These items include the foundation, framing, crawlspaces, attic, stairs, handrails, decks, porches, and so much more. Make sure that your home has “good bones” and that no costly issues are hiding in your home’s structure.
Heating & Cooling
Residential heating and cooling systems affect the value of a property and can adversely impact your health from poor air quality. Heating and cooling system functionality and efficiency determine immediate and long-term costs associated. A professional HVAC home inspection can save you thousands of dollars. We include a thorough inspection of the heating and cooling system.
Plumbing
Water damage can be extremely destructive to your residential investment quickly and without warning. We will perform a thorough inspection of all the plumbing, including, but not limited to, shut-off valves, pipe material (lead pipes may cause health risks), water heater, faucets, toilets, showers, possible leaks, and signs of water damage. Leaky pipes inside walls can have profound consequences on air quality and electrical dangers.
Roof
The roof protects your investment from obvious natural elements. But the roof has other functions that protect your home which may not be so obvious including, but not limited to, structural integrity, ventilation, and insulation. A roof inspection can reveal life expectancy, potential hazards, and the overall condition of the roof. Due to the high costs associated with residential roofing, a professional inspection by a licensed home inspector will provide information that can protect the buyer and seller alike.
Electrical
A proper home electrical inspection takes considerable time and experience. Consider the number of outlets, light receptacles, and electrical switches in your home, as well as appliances, circuit breakers, electrical panels, and connections behind walls and in crawl spaces. Faulty wiring poses serious risks; that is why it’s one of the most important parts of our inspection.
Insulation
Home insulation is important for energy conservation. Proper insulation will reduce the stress on your heating and cooling system, reduce your energy costs, promote noise absorption, and promote comfortable living. Determining the proper insulation values is best left to the inspection experts. Our in-depth professional home inspection can educate both the buyer and the seller on the property’s insulation performance.
