20 years of experience

Steve Wehrman first started learning about building construction in the late 1990s by performing drafting and design work for a structural engineering firm. This provided a working knowledge of home components and systems from the ground up. In 2005, Steve assisted on hundreds of home and business inspections along the Mississippi and Alabama gulf coast after hurricane Katrina. The inspections were performed side by side with licensed structural engineers. After the storm damage inspections were over, Steve began data collecting and inspecting other homes and properties for engineering firms. Steve also began shadowing one of the first licensed home inspectors in Alabama. Eventually, with several years worth of knowledge and experience, Steve joined ASHI (American Society of Home Inspectors) and became an Alabama state licensed, certified, and insured Home Inspector. Steve provides a thorough home inspection based around common sense and experience. The easy to follow report is created by using some of the most current report writing software that includes full color photographs, explanations of deficiencies, and advice for future upgrades.

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance can be voided in several scenarios. That can include making too many claims in a short period of time, leaving a home vacant for an extended period of time, renting out a home or room illegally, using a home as a business illegally, and any kind of criminal activity connected to the home.

There are a few things you can look out for to ensure your chimney is safe to use. Check for the following issues:

  • Cracks or missing pieces in the masonry of the chimney

  • Creosote buildup in the chimney, which is a black, tar-like substance

  • Cracks, stains, or scorch marks in the firebox

  • Water stains in or around the fireplace

  • A broken or stuck damper

In most cases, the most severe issue a home inspection report could identify is a structural problem, specifically related to the foundation. Foundation repairs are often the most expensive and intrusive repairs to carry out, averaging around $5,000 but sometimes reaching up to $16,000. You should ask questions during your home inspection about all of the issues your home inspector identifies, but you’ll likely need to think most about foundation problems and how they affect what you’re willing to pay for the home—that’s if you’re willing to move forward with the sale at all.

Homeowners insurance typically does not cover knob and tube (K&T) wiring due to its outdated nature and associated fire risks. Many insurance companies require the replacement of K&T wiring to provide coverage. Policies that do cover homes with K&T wiring may come with higher premiums or specific conditions. It's important to check with your insurance provider for their requirements and coverage options.

Start by asking friends, family, and neighbors if they know any reliable roof inspectors. You can also ask contractors that you’ve worked with in the past—they often have a network of people they can reach out to. Once you do find a roof inspector you like, check their online presence, read customer reviews, and give them a call. 

Make sure they’re properly licensed and insured in your area. It’s also a good idea to hire inspectors licensed by both the National Roof Certification & Inspection Association (NRCIA) and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI).
