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

There are many things to look for when buying a brick house. Here are some of the key things you should pay close attention to.

  • Lintels: Look for cracks, holes, displacement, or corrosion

  • Mortar: Check to see if the mortar is old and crumbling, in need of repointing, or new. Also check to see if the mortar has a professional finish.

  • Walls: Check along each side of the house. If a wall is bowing outward, this indicates a severe issue such as foundation damage or that the walls are ready to fall.

  • Cracks: If there are stair step cracks in the brickwork, this indicates an unstable foundation.

Yes, shipping container homes have a very high resale value if they’ve been well maintained over the years. You can resell this home similar to how you’d resell any home. The value depends on the market and the condition. As a bonus, you can transport many container homes depending on the design, which makes them easier to sell if the local market is challenging. 

Generally, no. The letter you receive from your landlord may say that they’ll do the apartment inspection whether or not you are home. If you want more time or you want to reschedule to a time that you will be home, you can ask your landlord, but they may not be required to honor your request.

Living in a house with smoke damage could be safe on a temporary basis, but it depends on the severity and type of smoke damage. If you have major smoke damage or soot present from a fire, you should relocate to keep you and your family safe. Breathing in soot can cause respiratory issues, and it can contain carcinogens, so move out until you get professional remediation done. Your insurance company may cover the cost for alternative housing while your professional works.

The three main types of home inspections you should always carry out for new construction include a pre-drywall inspection, a post-drywall inspection, and a one-year inspection. The pre-drywall inspection can identify building code violations, issues with plumbing, electrical, and HVAC components, and structural issues. The post-drywall inspection can identify damaged building materials, insufficient insulation, and more. An inspection at the one-year mark after construction will identify problems your builder must fix under their comprehensive one-year warranty.
