"Frank was very responsive and communicative leading up to the inspection. In the reminder email we received for our inspection appointment, there was a helpful link that covered what to inspect. During the inspection, Frank was prompt to let us know about higher priority repairs and at the end of the appointment, I had the detailed inspection report in hand. 100% would recommend."

"Very honest engineer. He performed a mandatory seismic inspection that was required for the city of Hayward. There was no foundation issue whatsoever. Before Mr Padir did the inspection I had a retrofit company look at my building and they told me it would cost $58k to fix the problem and I almost fell for it. It turns out that one joist was rotten from a sewer leak that was repaired. It is hard to find honest people these days. I am so glad it is only a cosmetic fix and a sister joist installed next to it to relieve the pressure on the building. Thank you once again Mr. Padir. Excellent job and quick turnaround."

"Not only did I need insulation work, I also needed pest control as rat droppings were discovered in the crawl space. Everyone, from Victor who performed the inspection, to Jose (job foreman) and his crew who did the insulation installation and all aspects of the pest control, to Julian (Attic Pros customer service) were all professional, knowledgeable, friendly, hardworking, and prompt. Home repair can be daunting and stressful. The professionals at Attic Pros took away that stress. I highly recommend them!"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

To prepare for a pre-drywall inspection, make sure to schedule the inspection before your drywall (and preferably insulation) is installed, but after all ductwork, plumbing, electrical wiring, and framing are in. You should also print a copy of your floor plan for your inspector, which they’ll use to make sure the build matches up. Lastly, try to clear the home of major obstacles (tools, large stacks of material, etc.) to allow the inspector access to the places they need to check.

Home inspectors may look briefly at your roof, but certified roof experts will be more thorough. Hiring a roof inspector can give you a better sense of any underlying concerns as well as longevity. That said, a roof inspector won’t look at the rest of your home. The inspection may or may not include the attic, where problems can be hidden if they aren’t already visible on the surface of your roof. It’s important to clarify exactly what you’re getting with your inspector so there are no surprises.

In most cases, no. The purpose of an inspection is to highlight any glaring issues with the property that the buyer might use to negotiate or want to rectify after closing, but there’s no law stating the inspection must pass. A buyer can accept any problems identified during a failed home inspection. The only exception would be lender-required repairs, which could hold up the mortgage.

Yes, in most cases, you can back out of your offer if you’re unsatisfied with something in the inspection. However, there is usually no recourse for doing so. The only exception would be if you waived the home inspection, a somewhat common practice to get your offer accepted in a highly competitive market. Waiving the home inspection doesn’t prevent you from getting an inspection, but you usually can’t walk away from the home after the inspection if there’s something wrong.

Regular inspections, finishing maintenance, and updating systems like HVAC for efficiency.
