"Great, Dustin was very through in his initial inspection, he included pictures of the areas I couldn’t get to. He also pointed out a few things that needed to be addressed and offered to fix those at no charge . That’s Right- NO CHARGE!! The blown-in insulation included a pest deterrent They also put mesh in all the weep holes to seal out pests and rodents. The crew arrived timely, and they were all very professional and courteous. They cleaned up after themselves both inside and out. Amazing, awesome, professional, courteous, and VERY affordable !"

"He was very friendly and thorough in his inspection of the property. He explained everything really well and made sure we understood the process. He saw things we didn't notice and it is truly making us re-think some things."

"James is a true professional in his field. First of all, he made himself available on very quick notice and was more than happy to accommodate me. He spent a great deal of time performing the inspection and really wanted us to understand his findings. We walked with him throughout the house and he made sure to explain everything in detail. He would often make recommendations on improvements and repairs. You could tell right away that he is an expert. At the end, he summarized everything that he found and was concerned about during the inspection. His official report was great and very thorough. I am so glad that I chose James and Turn Key Home Inspection! I would highly recommend using him!!"

"Mr. Lawrence sees everything—you want him in your corner. The realtor was clearly frustrated by how informed I was, thanks to the insights he gave me. Even after the sale went through, he offered valuable advice about my home. I’ve also hired him for repairs, and he could have easily charged more. In fact, he told me I didn’t need to do everything I initially asked for—he’s honest like that. He’s also completed several other fixes for me, always with the same attention to detail and integrity."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

There are no strict rules for who is responsible for covering repair costs after a home inspection, as the issue is highly negotiable, except in cases of mandatory repairs. Major issues discovered during the inspection often lead to a renegotiation. The buyer might ask the seller to make the repairs as a condition of the sale, but it is more common for the buyer to use the estimated repair costs as leverage to lower the asking price. The seller may agree to lower the price to compensate the buyer or agree to fix the issues before the sale is complete. However, in a competitive real estate market, a seller might refuse to cover any repairs, knowing that other buyers may be willing to purchase the property as-is.

Fresh baseboards can increase a home’s value because they refresh the look of your walls. This can make a good impression on buyers and potentially boost your home’s resale value. This is particularly helpful if your existing baseboards are in bad shape, which can age the look of your walls. 

Consider also investing in the cost to install shoe molding for an extra-polished look that can further boost resale value.

Consider an annual inspection conducted by a local plumber to prevent dangerous and destructive leaks. If you recently moved into an older home or are concerned about the age of your gas lines, call an inspector for a closer look. You may also be required to call an inspector after your contractor installs a new line for an appliance.

There are many things to look for when buying a brick house. Here are some of the key things you should pay close attention to.

  • Lintels: Look for cracks, holes, displacement, or corrosion

  • Mortar: Check to see if the mortar is old and crumbling, in need of repointing, or new. Also check to see if the mortar has a professional finish.

  • Walls: Check along each side of the house. If a wall is bowing outward, this indicates a severe issue such as foundation damage or that the walls are ready to fall.

  • Cracks: If there are stair step cracks in the brickwork, this indicates an unstable foundation.

If you see rust spots or streaks or any physical damage to the chimney cap from the ground, you should hire a professional to inspect and replace it. If it’s safe to get up on your roof or near your chimney cap with a ladder, you can perform a closer inspection to identify issues. Additionally, if you know your chimney cap is nearing the end of its life—usually five to ten years—or you’re seeing evidence of water damage or pest infestation in your chimney, it’s a good idea to replace the cap.
