"Bob was very thorough during the home inspection. As a first time home buyer he did an excellent job explaining his process and what he was looking for. He gave helpful tips regarding maintenance and management of a home. While I did not utilize this service, he does provide information sessions for first time home buyers and gives a step-by-step process in what to look for and expect when buying a home. I had post-inspection follow-up questions and his response was timely and very helpful."

"I actually hired Frank by accident, but he got the business because he was responsive, professional, and informative. I am so glad I made this mistake! He was very thorough and gave me very detailed information during the inspection and in the inspection report. I couldn't be happier with this process and will be calling him again in the future. I highly recommend."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Joanne was late by a couple of days in providing the appraisal. There were a couple of errors in the report. It took her another couple of days to get back to me and make the necessary corrections to the appraisal. But she is knowledgable, friendly and the final product is satisfactory."

"Budget Dry Waterproofing has been consistantly professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. The yearly inspection service they offer thoroughly examines not only your sump pump, but your entire water removal system. You don't realize how important this inspection process until you're standing in 5 inches of water due to an older, failed pump system! As an added bonus, their tech, Nic, is more than willing to offer explainations about the process with a side of humor!"

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.

The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.

A half bath is a selling point, adding about $8,000 to $10,000 to the overall value of your home. Removing it can decrease your home’s value—particularly if you have too few bathrooms for the number of bedrooms. That said, it may not make much difference if the number of bathrooms isn’t a problem. You could add value by utilizing that space differently, like a laundry room or workspace.

Consider an annual inspection conducted by a local plumber to prevent dangerous and destructive leaks. If you recently moved into an older home or are concerned about the age of your gas lines, call an inspector for a closer look. You may also be required to call an inspector after your contractor installs a new line for an appliance.

There are no strict rules for who is responsible for covering repair costs after a home inspection, as the issue is highly negotiable, except in cases of mandatory repairs. Major issues discovered during the inspection often lead to a renegotiation. The buyer might ask the seller to make the repairs as a condition of the sale, but it is more common for the buyer to use the estimated repair costs as leverage to lower the asking price. The seller may agree to lower the price to compensate the buyer or agree to fix the issues before the sale is complete. However, in a competitive real estate market, a seller might refuse to cover any repairs, knowing that other buyers may be willing to purchase the property as-is.
