A home inspection is a limited, non-invasive, visual inspection designed to identify deficiencies within general systems and components of the home. These components include the exterior, structure, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, interior, and attic. A home inspection is intended to assist in the decision making process of a real estate transaction, or a home maintenance strategy.

"It took this company almost two hours to do in an inspection of a 3500 sq. ft home. Then nitpicked over the smallest of details like a light bulb being out. They locked a door that we had told all realtors showing the home NOT to lock. We had to call a locksmith to open the door. Because they did not know how to run the AC controls, they marked that is was not cooling properly. Noted that burner on the stove did not work and suggested we either repair or replace the entire stove. Realtor had to send him a video showing that the burner did in fact work. I completely understand the need of an inspection before purchasing a house, but it should be for major items that could break down. Not nit picking things. If you need to sell your home and your home really is in great shape, don't get this company to do it. They will rip it apart and you will be stuck with the repair bill and possibly a door you can't open."

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 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.

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 your home has a forced-air HVAC system, it will also have HVAC duct parts. Air ducts are connected to an HVAC unit and deliver heated or cooled air to each room; your heating and AC wouldn’t work without ductwork.

However, if your house has a boiler or radiator system for heating and doesn’t have central AC, you probably don’t have ductwork installed.

There are a few things you can look out for to ensure your chimney is safe to use. Check for the following issues:

  • Cracks or missing pieces in the masonry of the chimney

  • Creosote buildup in the chimney, which is a black, tar-like substance

  • Cracks, stains, or scorch marks in the firebox

  • Water stains in or around the fireplace

  • A broken or stuck damper

Without regular proactive maintenance, your home and the things in it will wear out, break, or otherwise deteriorate much faster than they would with routine maintenance. Regular home maintenance also helps to prevent major problems down the road. For example, regular gutter cleaning will help avoid roof and foundation problems caused by pooling water and improper drainage.
