"As a first time home buyer, I had no idea what to expect. Paulo did a fantastic job at explaining everything during the home inspection. His service was truly amazing and friendly. My inspection report was sent to me in less than 24 hours after the inspection and was very detailed. I’m happy we used NextDay Inspect and look forward to using them again in the future."

"The inspection exceeded my expectations; this is my first home purchase and Mr. Stouter explained everything as we went along. He told me what to expect when buying a newly constructed home. He talked to me about the builderâ s warranty, when to contact them and most importantly to have another inspection (no later than 11 months before the warranty expires). Mr. Stouter showed me how to check the sub pump, talked to me about the water heater, sprinkler system, when to schedule the radon inspection and many other things. He also took time to point out and blue tape small cosmetic issues I would've missed. The things he found and the advice he gave will save me $$$ in future problems and home repairs. Everything he found and discussed with me is included in his report; I'm going to take it with me when I meet with the project manager to ensure each problem has been addressed and corrected. His attention to detail and sound advice put me at ease immediately. He is friendly, personable and gave me an honest assessment. I give All American Home Inspections, LLC the highest recommendation!"

"Conducted Home Inspection and Radon testing for a purchase contract in California, MD. Experience and knowledge base of inspector was impressive and helped uncover a potential structure condition that if gone undiscovered could possible created a serious safety concern and cost thousands in contractor repairs. Would highly recommend 1st Choice Inspection Services for anyone needing a home inspection. At the time of hire, inspector didn't possess license for conducting pest inspections nor any IR capabilities to check for leaks within walks."

Home Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, mixing siding types will affect your home value, and in most cases, it will improve curb appeal and add to the value of your home. This is especially true if you get the benefit of the high-end appearance of brick or stone siding but save on siding costs by covering most of the exterior with more affordable vinyl or fiber cement.

Any unexplained smell in your house should be investigated. However, some home odors are "red flag" worrisome because they pose immediate health and safety risks. Odors should be taken seriously when accompanied by headaches, nausea, or lightheadedness. If you smell an egg-like aroma, this is probably natural gas. You should leave the home immediately, and  contact your gas company.  

The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.

Home HVAC inspection costs vary widely from state to state. These different cost factors are due to geographic locations and cost of living. States with a lower cost of living are likely to have lower inspection costs compared with high-cost-of-living states. HVAC inspection costs can also vary within a state. If a technician has to travel a long distance to reach your home, you can expect to pay more for your inspection.

No, a standard home inspection includes the basics and does not offer lead paint testing. Professional lead paint inspectors need specific licenses to perform these inspections, which not all home inspectors have. If you suspect lead paint in the home you are about to purchase, you will need to pay separately to have that done. If the findings come back positive, you may be able to negotiate with the buyer to cover the cost of the removal.
