Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

You can guarantee that you hire a professional home inspector by reviewing their qualifications, years of experience, customer reviews, and certifications before hiring. If you’re working with a realtor, they can recommend at least one trusted professional home inspector. You can always confirm the credentials of a home inspector by checking for affiliations with organizations like the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors or the American Society of Home Inspectors. 

One of the best ways to know your chimney is good to go on any given night is to simply look up into your flue with a flashlight. If you see a thick buildup of creosote—a shiny, dark substance that looks like tar—it’s best to have your fireplace professionally cleaned before you go ahead with the burn. Additionally, having your fireplace professionally inspected once per year can also help increase your peace of mind and keep your family and your home safe.

It can be safe to live in a house with asbestos as long as the asbestos-containing materials are in good condition and not disturbed. Asbestos is only dangerous when it becomes airborne, which happens if the material is damaged, crumbling, or disturbed during renovation work. If you suspect asbestos is present, it's important not to disturb it and to have it professionally inspected.

To prepare for a pre-drywall inspection, make sure to schedule the inspection before your drywall (and preferably insulation) is installed, but after all ductwork, plumbing, electrical wiring, and framing are in. You should also print a copy of your floor plan for your inspector, which they’ll use to make sure the build matches up. Lastly, try to clear the home of major obstacles (tools, large stacks of material, etc.) to allow the inspector access to the places they need to check.

A home inspection is always worth it when buying a home, as it can reveal major issues with a home that could cost you thousands of dollars post-closing. If it doesn’t uncover any issues, then you have some peace of mind that you won’t have to lay out tens of thousands of dollars in repairs after you close.
