"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

Part of a pre-drywall inspector’s job is ensuring all work done on the home is up to code. If they discover anything that doesn’t comply, these fixes may be required by the local government or by the lender financing the build. Aside from these mandatory post-inspection home repairs, it’s technically optional to make any other repairs—though it’s a good idea to remain proactive about them to avoid a bigger issue in the future.

Most homeowner policies don’t cover damage to the actual French drains themselves. However, some insurance policies do cover flood damage. In the event that your current system fails and your French drains need to be fixed, you could be covered for any damages incurred. Check your insurance policy to see how they pay out for water damage if a drain system fails.

Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.

Waiving a home inspection could be beneficial if you’re buying a home in a hot location where the seller has many other offers to consider, especially if other buyers are willing to waive the inspection. However, it’s not usually a good idea to waive an inspection, even on new construction. Inspections can identify problems that could cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, so a formal inspection is always worthwhile. If you’re having a new home built, a pre-drywall inspection is often the most valuable, but a final inspection before you close is also a good idea.

Some of the biggest red flags to look out for after a home inspection include signs of water or moisture damage, missing or damaged shingles, structural problems like bowing roof joists, cracks in the foundation, and signs of pest damage.
