"Chris did our inspection, he is very knowledgeable and kind. He took his time to explain things to us and was able to answer all our questions. The report was done immediately, Chris sent it via PDF and asked if we wanted a printed copy to have for the new home owners. (Something we didn't even think about) We said yes, he went to his car and printed it out, put in in a very nice binder and gave it to us. Would definitely recommend this company!!"

"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."

"Devendra Deshwal helped us design and engineer landscaping with retaining walls and other structures in our front and backyards. He was very professional, patient and accommodating, and worked diligently with the City of Belmont to attain all permits and approvals. Even with changing requirements from the city, he was responsive and came back several times with updated designs and plans that met the new requirements and specs. Belmont is really particular about drainage, and Devendra worked closely with the city to get all the details needed to ensure that our plans met with City requirements. He followed-through until we completed final inspections and approvals of all the work done. We appreciate all the help he has provided to get our front and backyards landscaped to our requirements, and would recommend him highly to others who require the services of a civil/structural engineer."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Inspectors working for the seller on pre-listing inspections can present a conflict of interest, so standard home inspections are usually hired and paid for by the buyer. If the buyer has some negotiating power, they might request that the seller cover the cost (by taking it off the asking price), but this varies on a case-by-case basis. When it comes to home appraisal costs and pre-listing inspections, the seller will naturally have to pay, as these are done before the home is left up for sale.

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. 

Yes, a crawl space can add value to your home. However, there is a higher chance of it adding value if it is an enclosed crawl space, as this reduces issues caused by excess moisture in the home. That being said, a basement does add more value than a crawl space.

When you notice any of these signs in your mobile home, it’s time to call a professional to relevel your home:

  • Doors and windows are difficult to open and close

  • Creaking sounds in the house

  • Water is running off tables onto the floor

  • Unusual cracks

  • The skirting or siding of your house looks like it’s buckled under pressure

  • The exterior of the home looks tilted

These are some of the critical considerations when planning to make your home accessible:

  • How wide are your doorways, wheelchair ramps, hallways, and pathways? These should be at least 32 inches wide.

  • Which bathroom modifications will be necessary? 

  • Do you need to lower any cabinetry or other fixtures to make them accessible for wheelchair users?

  • Is there enough room to turn around in the shower?

  • Is there a second story of the home that requires a stair lift?

  • Is there proper lighting outside in the dark? If not, a floodlight may be necessary.
