"The home genius team was very helpful. They put my roof on a while ago and I had a leak recently that they came and inspected. We determined that my box gutters needed fixed and I had them do the job. Walter the project manager was very helpful coordinating the work and the work lance did an amazing job repairing the box gutters."

"I had storm damage on my roof that had caused my ceiling to collapse in places. After reviewing different companies I chose three and filled out online submissions for quotes. Within an hour Tom had contacted me and gathered all the general information. The other two companies never responded at all. The next day Wes showed up and inspected our roof and ceilings. He took photographs and covered everything with me. The next day Tom sent me some of the photos saying it looked like a great opportunity for homeowners insurance to cover some of the damage. I had not even considered that. Tom walked me through the insurance claim and also dealing with the insurance company which was not always easy. In the end insurance covered practically everything. The work was flawless by the crews who worked on my house. New roof, new vinyl siding with fascia and trim. New gutters. My house completely transformed. Bob the Builder is Amazing!"

""I recently had my home appraised by MJ/Johnson Appraisals, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received. From the initial scheduling to the final report, the entire process was smooth, professional, and efficient. Mike Johnson was punctual, courteous, and clearly very knowledgeable. They took the time to thoroughly inspect my property, paying attention to details that I appreciated. I felt confident in their expertise and their commitment to providing an accurate valuation. The appraisal report was delivered promptly and was comprehensive and easy to understand. It provided a clear justification for the assessed value, addressing all the key factors that contribute to a home's worth. I highly recommend MJ/Johnson Appraisals to anyone in need of a reliable and professional home appraisal.

Home Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.

Yes, home additions almost always increase a home's value and can be a good investment by enhancing both its utility and square footage. The actual return depends on several factors, including the type of addition, quality of work, and local market conditions. Key additions like extra bedrooms, bathrooms, and larger kitchens tend to offer the highest returns. For example, adding a primary suite might result in a 63% return on investment, while a sunroom may yield around a 49% return. For the best results, additions should be well-planned to integrate seamlessly with the existing structure.

When you notice any of these signs in your mobile home, it’s time to call a professional to relevel your home:

  • Doors and windows are difficult to open and close

  • Creaking sounds in the house

  • Water is running off tables onto the floor

  • Unusual cracks

  • The skirting or siding of your house looks like it’s buckled under pressure

  • The exterior of the home looks tilted

A pass/fail home inspection is a type of inspection that a buyer pays for with the understanding that the results will not allow for renegotiation. It’s most common in situations where the buyer waives a home inspection contingency to get their offer accepted when there’s a lot of competition for the home. The buyer will accept the house as-is without requesting repairs or renovations to fix potential issues, or they will consider the inspection a fail and will back out of the deal, losing out on the cost of the home inspection.

While it’s not mandatory unless you’re purchasing a home, it is important to schedule regular home electrical inspections for safety and to maintain your house’s value. Inspections can reduce fire risk and can help save money on insurance premiums. They can also catch problems before they start, saving money on repairs down the line.
