"This year I decided to change my homeowner's insurance to another company. The new company I chose required a 4-point home inspection before finalizing the policy. Dennis Cwalina performed the required inspection and sent a report with detailed pictures to the insurance company. Dennis performed a very thorough inspection of my home, both inside and outside and an equally detailed report of his findings. He arrived exactly at the agreed upon time, explained what he was looking at (and for) during each step of the process, and sent the detailed report to both myself and the insurance company before leaving my home. I could not be more pleased with his work and his focus on customer care. I'm sure his detailed inspection report had a significant impact on my ability to procure new homeowner's insurance at a more affordable price than renewing with my current carrier. Anytime you need a home inspection done, I highly recommend Dennis Cwalina from Reliable Home Inspections for the job."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Hiring a structural engineer who inspects foundations is the best way to find out if your foundation is up to code. These pros know building codes in and out and can inspect your foundation and prepare a report detailing anything that doesn’t meet code. A structural engineer can also recommend fixes for any problems they spot—you’ll just need to hire a foundation contractor to do the work.

Self-management is possible but requires significant time investment and an understanding of legal and operational responsibilities associated with property maintenance.

It can be safe to buy or live in a house with knob and tube (K&T) wiring, but only if the system is in good condition, functional, and has been thoroughly inspected and approved by a licensed electrician. Never purchase a home with K&T wiring without getting a professional electrical inspection first.

Key considerations include:

  • Safety and Condition: An inspector will verify that the wiring is safe and has not deteriorated. Over time, the insulation can wear away, leaving exposed wires that pose a significant fire or shock hazard.

  • System Capacity: The electrical service should be at least 60 amps. However, even at this capacity, K&T systems often struggle to handle the demands of modern appliances and electronics.

  • Lack of Grounding: Knob and tube wiring is an ungrounded system, which is a safety concern for many modern devices.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: If you live in a home with K&T wiring, it's recommended to have it inspected by an electrician every one to two years to ensure it remains in safe working order.

Ultimately, any inspection or modification of a knob and tube system should always be performed by a certified professional.

Houses built on pier and beam foundations will be elevated off the ground, will have a crawl space, and will most likely have stairs at the main entrance. Pier and beam foundations will also have vents spaced out along the foundation to allow for airflow and moisture control in the crawl space. 

To determine if you’re being overcharged, request an itemized price breakdown of the project. Check for hidden fees or project expenses, from parts to labor, that are clearly overpriced. However, the easiest way to know if a contractor is overcharging you is by getting an estimate for the same project from another professional. Negotiating with a contractor if you have another bid for a lower price is possible.
