"The inspector overwhelmed my expectations in that he went way beyond the work which I wanted done. Example, I called him to inspect one bathroom. At no extra charge, he inspected the kitchen and two other bathrooms. He also educated me of many items of which I was ignorant. The time which he spent here, as well, way surpassed my expectations. He is quite polite to boot."

"I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Thurman Roofing & Construction, and especially Cody. My 78-year-old mom was told by another roofing company that she needed a complete new roof. Naturally, we were concerned and decided to get another professional opinion before moving forward. Cody came out, took the time to inspect her roof, answered all of her questions, and treated her with incredible patience, kindness, and respect. Most importantly, he was honest: she does not need a new roof. He essentially talked himself out of a sale. In a world where seniors can unfortunately be easy targets for unnecessary repairs and high-pressure sales tactics, Cody's integrity meant more to us than I can adequately put into words. He could have easily sold my mom something she didn't need. Instead, he gave her an honest assessment and told her that if she really wanted a new roof, he'd certainly be happy to help—but she doesn't need one. 😂 That kind of honesty is rare!"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Any good contract company will do their own post-work inspection and walkthrough with their clients, but you shouldn’t consider these a replacement for a third-party pre-drywall inspection. Even a small mistake or oversight can lead to big issues down the line. Having an objective, neutral professional perform the inspection will help to make sure nothing goes overlooked.

Closing out an open building permit requires that you have your professional schedule a final inspection of the work they completed. In some cases, like a roof replacement or solar installation, a building inspector from your local municipality may just carry out a drive-by inspection. In other cases, like new construction or a change to interior plumbing or electrical work, the inspector might need to gain access to your home to confirm that the work was done in accordance with the local building code.

While some homeowners may feel confident conducting their own roof inspections, hiring a professional roofing inspector is recommended for a safe and accurate assessment. Professional roof inspectors have the knowledge and experience to identify even the smallest signs of damage or potential issues and they can spot problems that may go unnoticed by an untrained eye.

There are a few things that can set off your carbon monoxide detector that aren’t an emergency. Low batteries or a malfunctioning system are usually the biggest culprits, but dust and dirt can build up on the sensor and cause issues, too. If you have a single unit that serves as both a carbon monoxide and smoke detector, extreme humidity (like the kind coming from a shower) can accidentally set it off. 

There are no strict rules for who is responsible for covering repair costs after a home inspection, as the issue is highly negotiable, except in cases of mandatory repairs. Major issues discovered during the inspection often lead to a renegotiation. The buyer might ask the seller to make the repairs as a condition of the sale, but it is more common for the buyer to use the estimated repair costs as leverage to lower the asking price. The seller may agree to lower the price to compensate the buyer or agree to fix the issues before the sale is complete. However, in a competitive real estate market, a seller might refuse to cover any repairs, knowing that other buyers may be willing to purchase the property as-is.
