"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!"

"I contacted Fidelity Home Inspections of Maryland to inspect my roof. Mr. Alderson arrived on time. He was very professional. Answered all of the questions I had prior to the inspection and gave me a verbal critique after the inspection. As he promised I received a detailed written report via email within 24 hours."

"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

It is generally recommended to schedule a professional plumbing inspection annually for an average home. However, the ideal frequency can vary. Newer homes may only require an inspection every two years, while older homes, or those with a history of plumbing problems, benefit from more frequent annual checkups. Other factors that might necessitate more frequent inspections include having hard water or mature trees on your property with extensive root systems that could damage sewer and water lines. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs, and typically includes checking for leaks, inspecting connections, and ensuring pipes and fixtures are in good working condition to extend the life of your plumbing system.

Yes, an inspection contingency is likely a good idea, regardless of if you’re buying a new or older home. It can give you a set number of days to respond to objections that might have been found in the inspection so you can make an informed buying decision.

Unfortunately, home inspections do not check for asbestos because of the liability factor involved. That’s why you should hire a trained professional with specialized equipment to test for it. 

They will inspect all areas of the home and take samples of various materials to test. Opting for an asbestos inspection can prevent the risk of exposure to this hazardous material and save on costly repairs that may be required. 

Getting a mobile home inspection is a key part of any buying or selling process, as it evaluates the mobile home's condition and identifies potential issues before they become major problems and lead to high repair costs. A mobile home inspection also helps sellers pinpoint areas that need attention before listing the home for sale, ensuring a smooth transaction and potentially increasing the home's value.

Most LED bulbs have a plastic covering, while incandescent bulbs will be made from glass. This is because LED bulbs don’t produce as much heat as incandescent bulbs, so the covering doesn’t need to be as heat resistant. Also, an LED light bulb will usually have a marking on its base that identifies it as an LED.
