"I had an excellent experience with Tyler inspecting my new home. He was professional, thorough, and extraordinarily informative. His report comes in immediately after the inspection and he even offered to connect me with folks who could help me work on my home. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone and will be reaching out again if I need another inspection."

"Fred was amazing to work with, he works very hard to make sure he helps his customers, I am really impressed by the time and effort he put into the property inspection. I was able to make a decision on the property. It was worth it, I will do it again for another home inspection with Fred and will recommend to my friends and family."

"I was impressed with the system of questions and investigation that occurred. Sherlock Homes lives up to its name in that, like true detectives, they know how to get to the source of the problem through some sort of root-cause analysis that theyâ ve developed. I was thoroughly impressed. I would be hard pressed to call someone else after the quality of service that I received."

"Andy was incredibly professional, efficient, knowledgeable and sensitive to my homeowner's anxiety about the mold. He answered my many questions with patience and grace, took lots of pictures to document the work and did a complete report for my insurance adjuster. He was the first to respond to my inquiry and the main work was done within two days of my initial outreach, and he picked up his drying equipment within four days. I was able to take a scheduled trip knowing the mold remediation was accomplished. I HIGHLY recommend Andy and Viva Property Restoration--and hope at the same time that I never need his services again!! :-)"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

No, a standard home inspection includes the basics and does not offer lead paint testing. Professional lead paint inspectors need specific licenses to perform these inspections, which not all home inspectors have. If you suspect lead paint in the home you are about to purchase, you will need to pay separately to have that done. If the findings come back positive, you may be able to negotiate with the buyer to cover the cost of the removal.

Older homes normally take longer to inspect than newer ones. Old homes are more prone to damage, deterioration, or outdated systems and features, and an inspector will need to note the condition of the home and anything in it that may need to be updated or repaired.

Unfortunately, home inspections do not check for asbestos because of the liability factor involved. That’s why you should hire a trained professional with specialized equipment to test for it. 

They will inspect all areas of the home and take samples of various materials to test. Opting for an asbestos inspection can prevent the risk of exposure to this hazardous material and save on costly repairs that may be required. 

In most cases, a roof inspection will include a visual inspection of the exterior roofing materials, an interior inspection for signs of leaking or roof damage, and an assessment of the structural stability of your roof and the materials supporting it. Some things your roof inspector will look for include the following:

  • Missing or damaged shingles, flashing, or sealant

  • Signs of old age

  • Signs of leaks, including mold growth and water stains

  • Potential issues, like tree branches touching your roof

  • Signs of a loss of structural integrity

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.
