Here at Eastern Inspection Services we perform home inspections, septic system inspections, and water testing. All our technicians and inspectors are Licensed, and Fully Insured. Weather you need a home inspection or a septic system inspection or even a third party code inspection we can help you out. As of 2024 we no longer offer oil burner or plumbing work as our company techs have all made the decision due to rising insurance cost to let their licenses lap. We will continue home inspections in Maine for the time being with prices adjusted due to increasing certification and insurance cost. Please keep in mind Maine does not license home inspectors and all inspectors are trained through InterNACHI and ICC training courses.

Our average inspection time is approximately 3 hours. We keep abreast of current inspection techniques and procedures. We prefer to have our clients attend the inspection, as an on-site consultation helps avoid potential misunderstandings and that all your questions can be answered on the site. Our thorough inspection reports are e-mailed to the client at the end of the inspection. They will identify any serious structural defects and deferred maintenance issues that may not be apparent when you initially view a property.

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

While a hygrometer is the most accurate tool for measuring humidity levels in the home, you can gauge humidity levels using simpler methods. One way is by observing signs like condensation on windows or feeling excessively sticky or clammy indoors, indicating higher humidity. Another DIY approach involves the “hair method”—aka placing a few strands of human hair in a closed container with salt for several hours. If the hair becomes limp, it's likely due to high humidity. These methods offer rough estimations, but lack the precision of a hygrometer for accurate readings.

The difference between an energy auditor and a home inspector is primarily in the purpose of the inspection. The energy auditor conducts tests in your home to determine the energy efficiency levels in areas like windows, insulation, and doorways. The auditor then makes recommendations for ways to improve a home’s energy efficiency

A home inspector examines various structures of your home to determine that everything is up to code and gauge the condition of features like the roof, foundation, HVAC, and electrical. The home inspector reports on the overall home and makes repair recommendations.

Normal home inspections do not include sewer lines or septic systems, hazardous materials like radon or mold, swimming pools, electrical systems, or pest problems. Most of these require a separate inspection by a qualified pro in addition to a general home inspection.

Asbestos can be found in many building materials, especially if the materials were installed more than 20 years ago. Asbestos-containing materials (ACM) can include:

  • Acoustic ceiling tiles

  • Furnace insulation

  • Home appliances

  • Fire-retardant clothing

  • Cement pipe

  • Pipe insulation

  • Wall and ceiling insulation

  • Vehicle brake pads

  • Vinyl flooring

  • Sprayed acoustic ceilings

  • Stove insulation

  • Patching compounds

  • Textured paints

  • Roofing shingles

  • Siding

You should schedule a fireplace inspection at least once a year, per the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). However, this is the minimum requirement even if you’re diligent with fireplace maintenance between uses. If you suspect your fireplace is malfunctioning, schedule one sooner to avoid fire hazards or the release of harmful emissions like carbon monoxide in your home.
