"Matthew did a great job inspecting the mobile home, and pointed out each step of the inspection as I followed him around. I would definitely hire him again if I needed another inspection."

"Even though this is our 3rd home, I had yet to walk through a full home inspection. I would recommend this be done for all potential homeowners. My inspector, Todd was as thorough as if he had built this home. He is extremely knowledgeable and allows customers the chance to ask ?inspections for dummies? type questions. I was very comfortable and pleased with his intricate knowledge of the home inspection. Finally, his report provided immediately after the inspection is best in class business practices. I would recommend him all day everyday."

"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!"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

It can be safe to live in a house with asbestos as long as the asbestos-containing materials are intact, in good condition, and not disturbed. Asbestos becomes dangerous only when its fibers are released into the air, which happens if the material is damaged, crumbling, or disturbed during renovation work. If you suspect asbestos is present, do not disturb it. Instead of removal, materials in good condition can sometimes be encapsulated. It is recommended to have regular professional inspections to monitor the condition of the asbestos and prevent health risks from potential exposure.

Home inspectors may look briefly at your roof, but certified roof experts will be more thorough. Hiring a roof inspector can give you a better sense of any underlying concerns as well as longevity. That said, a roof inspector won’t look at the rest of your home. The inspection may or may not include the attic, where problems can be hidden if they aren’t already visible on the surface of your roof. It’s important to clarify exactly what you’re getting with your inspector so there are no surprises.

Whether or not you use your home inspection results to negotiate with a seller depends on how badly you want the property, what you’re willing to pay for repairs post-closing, and how strong the market is in your area. If a seller has other offers to consider, they may walk away from yours if you try to renegotiate based on your inspection results. Speak with your agent, who should attend the home inspection, about the best course of action, and consider how badly you want or need the property.

It is generally recommended to schedule a professional plumbing inspection annually, though an inspection every two years may be sufficient for newer homes. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age of your plumbing system, water quality (such as hardness), and any previous plumbing issues. More frequent checks are advisable for older homes or those with a history of problems. Additionally, if your property has mature trees with extensive root systems, more frequent inspections are beneficial as roots can crack sewer and water lines. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs, and can include checking for leaks, inspecting connections, and ensuring pipes and fixtures are in good working condition to prolong the life of your plumbing system.

Yes, you can get a quote from a home insurance company without an inspection. However, if the insurer mandates one, you may have to determine who will pay for the inspection and submit it with your application so they can provide you with an accurate quote.
