Hi, my name is Danny Geurink and over the last decade I have been involved in all facets of construction and home-building, from boots on the ground to project management in the office. It is my goal to take all these skills and use them to be able to help you buy, sell or upgrade your current or future home! As a homeowner myself I know the joys and frustrations of owning and maintaining a home. Id love the opportunity to help you whether you are just beginning the journey of home-ownership or if you are already on the journey and looking to improve your current home.

"My wife and I are in the process of purchasing our fourth home and have used 4 different home inspectors in 3 different states. The level of quality and service that Ink Home Services provided to use was amazing. Danny's inspection was thorough, balanced and calm. He pointed out things almost any other inspector would have missed and spent extra time, to ensure that he investigated a potential termite problem. Finally, the report that Danny produced was by far the most readable, and informative I have ever seen. Do not even think about using someone else for your inspection."

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

STC (Sound Transmission Class) ratings tell you how well something blocks airborne noise. It’s a single number that sums up how much sound a material, like a window, can stop across regular speech frequencies. The higher the number, the better the sound reduction. A typical single-pane window hovers around STC 25 (where you can hear normal conversations), while well-sealed, double-pane options can push past STC 45 (which blocks out loud speech and most music). Just keep in mind that STC doesn’t cover everything—low rumbles like bass or thunder can sneak through—so pairing methods are always ideal for the most peace and quiet.

String lights require electricity, but not an excessive amount, especially when compared to other lighting fixtures. LED rope lights, for instance, consume around one watt per foot. Running six or seven light strings simultaneously should only cost you around $10 to $15 each month. You can save even more money by remembering to turn off your lights during daylight hours. 

Blower door tests are measured in a few different ways, but the most popular are air changes per hour (ACH) and cubic feet of air (CFM) moving through the house per hour. A good ACH score is less than 2ACH, but 1ACH is better. This means the house experiences a total air change within 60 minutes (for 1ACH). For 2ACH, there’s a complete change every 30 minutes, and so on. CFM scores are similar in that a lower score means less air change, and therefore less leakage.

You can increase your home’s load factor by replacing fuse boxes with a circuit breaker, hiring a licensed electrician to upgrade your electrical panel, upgrading wiring, or installing subpanels. An electrical inspection by an expert can help determine the state of your current electrical systems and how they can be improved.

Generator size requirements vary wildly among properties, but typical generator sizes are listed below based on home square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20kW+

Unfortunately, home square footage isn’t always a good indicator of generator size requirements. Instead, you should call in a professional to discuss which items in your home you’d like to run via your generator. They can calculate peak and average consumption for those items and then size your generator appropriately for optimal performance.
