Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Checking for mold yourself is crucial, as catching mold in the early stages is ideal. Mold can appear green, brown, black, blue, or yellow. It can smell musty and can feel like velvet, leather, or cotton. 

Most often, mold grows near water damage. It’s best to inspect these places for signs of mold growth:

  • Basement: Look in corners, windows, carpet, closets, and around appliances. 

  • Bathrooms: Check around sinks, ceilings, and around toilets. 

  • Kitchen: Inspect around the sink, behind the refrigerator, and behind trash can.

  • Attic: Look near the insulation and near intake and exhaust vents.

The biggest sign that you should repipe your house is if your pipes are past the average life span. Also, if your pipes are made of lead, polybutylene, or galvanized steel, it's best to repipe your home to avoid dangerous chemicals from leaching into your water supply.

You may also want to repipe your house if your plumbing is constantly having problems with leaks, corrosion, and low water quality. The cost to repipe a house is $1,500 to $15,000.

A home inspection evaluates the property visually to determine whether there are any structural problems that the current homeowner must repair before selling. A home appraisal is a thorough evaluation of the property and its surrounding area to determine its current market value, which informs homeowners of the value of their home to help set the asking price. The appraisal will guide the mortgage company’s lending decision.

It's smart to schedule a foundation inspection after a significant drought, especially if you suspect new problems in your home's structure, such as cracks or uneven floors. Be sure to hire a certified contractor to inspect your foundation, particularly one that specializes in foundations or home inspections. Catching potential problems early on can help you avoid costly repairs in the long run.

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.
