Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Most LED bulbs have a plastic covering, while incandescent bulbs will be made from glass. This is because LED bulbs don’t produce as much heat as incandescent bulbs, so the covering doesn’t need to be as heat resistant. Also, an LED light bulb will usually have a marking on its base that identifies it as an LED.

Knowing what to expect during a mold inspection can help make the process easier. Prepare by closing doors and windows for 48 hours, turning off HVAC systems for at least two hours, and avoiding disinfectant chemicals for at least 48 hours. 

The mold inspection process takes between 24 and 48 hours. Your professional will check walls, fireplaces, air ducts, vents, and windows for visible spores. They will also take an outdoor base air sample. Your pro will send these samples to a lab for testing and advise you on the findings.

Most homeowner policies don’t cover damage to the actual French drains themselves. However, some insurance policies do cover flood damage. In the event that your current system fails and your French drains need to be fixed, you could be covered for any damages incurred. Check your insurance policy to see how they pay out for water damage if a drain system fails.

If you want to buy a home that has knob and tube wiring, you should get an inspection first. An electrical inspector can take a thorough look at the wiring and make sure that it's completely safe for your home and has no potential to cause fires or disrupt the overall wiring in your home. Never buy a house with knob and tube wiring without first getting an inspection by a certified and vetted electrician.

If the knob and tube wiring system is in good condition and recently approved by a licensed inspection, then it is safe. However, knob and tube wiring is not grounded, and the insulation sheathing can deteriorate and leave exposed wires inside walls and other areas that can cause potential fire or shock hazards. Always have a professional inspect or modify any part of knob and tube electrical systems.
