For your protection get a home inspection. Inspection Connection Iowa offers the highest quality home inspection in the entire Des Moines, Iowa area. Our Certified Home Inspectors will spend 2 1/2 to 3 hours thoroughly evaluating all aspects of the property you are purchasing, from the roof to the foundation and all areas in between. We also provide additional radon testing and pest inspections. Be sure to let us know if you’ll be needing these additional services. We want you to come along with us during the course of the inspection. Okay, if you’re a seasoned home buyer it may not be as important that you’re there the entire time. However, if you are new to the home buying process, it’s very important that you’re there from start to finish. We’ll not only inspect the house you’re buying, but we’ll share with you what needs to be maintained and why. You’ll get a real education about your new home. Don’t worry, we’ll explain everything in terms you can understand. We are a “Jargon Free” Company! We provide inspections Monday through Friday and work hard to accommodate you! But we understand not everyone can attend the inspection during the day or week so we offer Limited Saturday inspections by Special Appointment. Our Saturday schedule fills up quickly, so please call us now to let us know as soon as possible if you need a Saturday inspection. We’ll do our best to accommodate you. One of the ways to judge the quality and professionalism of the work done by a home inspector is to take a look at their inspection report, which is why we provide sample inspection reports right on our website for your review. Visit our website or call one of our friendly Customer Care Coordinators to schedule your next home inspection.

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you can negotiate after a home inspection and use the issues as leverage to bring down the purchase price of a home. The only exception would be if you waived the home inspection to make your offer more appealing to the seller. In that case, you can still have a home inspection done to identify issues, but you have no recourse to make a counteroffer after you get the inspection results.

Homeowners insurance typically does not cover knob and tube (K&T) wiring due to its outdated nature and associated fire risks. Many insurance companies require the replacement of K&T wiring to provide coverage. Policies that do cover homes with K&T wiring may come with higher premiums or specific conditions. It's important to check with your insurance provider for their requirements and coverage options.

Homeowners usually do not have to update existing systems unless they are doing significant renovations. Consult your local building codes or ask a knowledgeable local contractor for the details.

Yes. Chimneys should be inspected annually to ensure they are in safe working order. Inspectors check the chimney for cracks, leaks, blockages, creosote buildup, and other problems that could result in structural damage to your home, fire hazards, or carbon monoxide poisoning. A yearly inspection is the best way to identify potential issues before they can cause damage to you or your home.

There are a few things you can look out for to ensure your chimney is safe to use. Check for the following issues:

  • Cracks or missing pieces in the masonry of the chimney

  • Creosote buildup in the chimney, which is a black, tar-like substance

  • Cracks, stains, or scorch marks in the firebox

  • Water stains in or around the fireplace

  • A broken or stuck damper
