"If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Justin made the entire home buying experience less stressful, knowing we had such a detail-oriented home inspector in our corner! His thorough report doubles as a homeowner’s manual. He has made himself available for follow-up questions, and is always quick to respond. As a first time home buyer, Justin welcomed us to walk with him through the entire inspection & showed us how each component of the house works. We could not have been happier with our decision to contract with Maxim Inspections, Justin made entire process seamless!"

"Workers were very accommodating, polite and very trustworthy. Left them alone in my house and nothing was stolen. I say that because I have had contractors in my home and expensive items were stolen. I was very pleased with their respectfulness and their willingness to do what I asked as a favor. They were a great team and their leader was terrific. I felt comfortable leaving them alone in my home after meeting with them. I did not know they were referred by Home Advisor as I replied to a few sites and was pleasantly surprised as they were the first ones to contact me so I promptly made the appointment as time was of the essence. Thank you for your services you provide when one has no referrals or contacts to call. I would highly recommend your site."

"Adam responded to my call and came out to examine a structural issue on our home. He was knowledgeable and identified a serious issue our pre-pruchase home inspector missed. He furnished a report on the issue, and offered his services in the future for a plan to remediate the issue. I would recommend his services."

"Bob Stevenson came by and gave me very thorough inspections regarding my basement, foundation cracks and windows. I was extremely impressed by his presentation, honesty and detailed knowledge base. Bob performed a very thorough inspection of my basement and foundation. He did not try to pressure me or upsell me at all. Very decent person. I have met with several competitors and BudgetDry seems to have a better system than most. If I move forward with this project I would definitely consider hiring this company. I give Bob my highest recommendation."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

It can be safe to live in a house with asbestos as long as the asbestos-containing materials are intact, in good condition, and not disturbed. Asbestos becomes dangerous only when its fibers are released into the air, which happens if the material is damaged, crumbling, or disturbed during renovation work. If you suspect asbestos is present, do not disturb it. Instead of removal, materials in good condition can sometimes be encapsulated. It is recommended to have regular professional inspections to monitor the condition of the asbestos and prevent health risks from potential exposure.

A home inspection typically takes between two and three hours, though the total time can range from 30 minutes to half a day. The exact duration depends on several factors, including the home's size, age, condition, and location. Other variables that can affect the timeline are the complexity of the layout, the accessibility of various components, the size of the surrounding grounds, the inspector's experience, and whether it is a full home inspection or a more limited structural inspection. For a more accurate time estimate, you can ask your potential home inspector to review the specifications of the home beforehand. You should receive the completed inspection report within one to four days of the inspection.

Using your realtor’s inspector may potentially speed up the home-buying process in that realtors are unlikely to recommend someone they’ve had prior difficulties with regarding scheduling or report turnaround time. There are other factors to consider, though—you don’t want a rushed inspection or a partial report. It’s more important that you work with a home inspector who can do a thorough assessment and explain any issues to you clearly.

A mold inspection costs an average of $660, with a typical range between $300 and $1,025. However, costs can be as low as $150 or as high as $2,800 depending on several factors. These include the size of your home, the type of mold, the extent and accessibility of the affected area, your location, and the number and type of samples required. Hard-to-reach areas like air ducts, crawl spaces, and wall cavities can increase the cost. Specific tests have different prices; for example, swab testing typically costs $200 to $300 per area, while more extensive air testing can range from $250 to $700. A thorough inspection is crucial for determining the scope of the problem and identifying the best remediation method.

You can test your ductwork by hiring a technician to attach a vacuum to the ductwork near the HVAC unit and put the vent system under pressure. Your pro can use a duct leak tester to measure the amount of pressure that's escaping. 

You can also do a DIY test using an incense stick or smoke pencil. With the HVAC system running, pass the stick or pencil across the ductwork. Pay attention to the movement of the smoke. When you notice it changing, it could be a sign there’s a leak or bad connection in the duct.
