"Jon at Finest Home Inspection was great. He walked us through the inspection and his findings on site as well as answered our specific questions about the house. Our inspection report was provided the same day and the radon test results were provided as soon as they were available. He let us know what he wasn't able to check because there were tenants living in the house. He gave us his honest opinion on the house when we asked him. It can be difficult to assess the thoroughness of a home inspection, but now that we've been living in our home for a while, I am confident our home inspection was thorough. We haven't run into any issues that were not addressed in the home inspection. I would recommend Finest Home Inspection."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Homeowner’s insurance will usually cover damages caused by contractors, but it won’t cover repairs if a contractor does poor work. If a contractor completes a job and you’re unhappy with the results, your best option is to have a civil conversation with the contractor about the issues. Reputable professionals may be willing to address your concerns at no additional cost or work out another resolution.

An annual inspection can ensure that a fireplace is in proper working order to avoid fire hazards and the release of carbon monoxide into the home. Not all fireplace issues, especially blockages, are easily visible from inside or outside the home, which is why a professional must conduct a thorough internal inspection of all of the fireplace and chimney components.

While most house creaking is expected to some extent and under normal conditions, it's not a good idea to ignore new noises. If other problems accompany the creakiness, like cement cracks, wobbly or loose stair components, or moving trimwork, it's time to look into the potential for foundation trouble or other structural problems.

Technically, you can do a home inspection yourself. Still, it is not recommended unless you or someone you know has a background in the construction trades to be able to identify any issues. A certified home inspector is trained and has the experience necessary to make a thorough and trustworthy assessment of the condition of a home. If you need a home inspection when buying and selling a home, a professional home inspector is often required.

You might consider demolishing a house if it has a faulty foundation, widespread mold or pest damage, or other significant issues. Older homes with outdated wiring systems or dangerous materials could also be good candidates for demolition. Or, if you’re planning to remodel the entire home, you might find that it’s more cost-effective to tear it all down and start from scratch.
