"Mark was very thorough with the inspection of our soon to be home. The inspection report was detailed, but still understandable. He was professional and personable. There were some things I didn’t think of checking in the house that was included in the inspection. The pricing was very reasonable and he answered all of our questions. I would highly recommend Bench-Mark to anyone that needs a home inspection."

"They did a comprehensive inspection of the old roof externally and internally, pointing out all the problem areas, something the other contractors I tried did not do as thoroughly (attic is not completely open). The roof was completed in a day and no debris was left behind."

"I had several quotes for a fairly extensive leak in my poured basement wall resulting from poor workmanship during the original construction. Several contractors told me the foundation would have to be dug up to do a proper repair. I was hoping for another solution so I called this company. They came out to look and I was immediately impressed with their professionalism and candor. The first rep did not try to pressure sell me and even expressed skepticism that they could fix the problem. He called in other resources from the company to inspect it and offer their assessments. After careful examination and consultation with each other they determined that sealing the wall from the inside was feasible. I waited until now to write this review so I could be honest about how it turned out. Well, it hasn't leaked a drop! I would recommend this company to anybody. They earned my trust and they saved me a lot of money and grief."

"Steve and Jim did a great job with the original inspection and consultation. Made everything very easy to understand. Also, informed me of various options I needed. Lisa in the office was very friendly and polite when setting up the appointment for installation. Greg and Mike did an awesome job on the installation. Came right on time and were very open in communication on what they were doing. They also cleaned up well when done. I would highly highly recommend them to anyone. I really appreciate all the work they did on my home. Dave"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

It can be safe to buy or live in a house with knob and tube (K&T) wiring, but only if the system is in good condition, functional, and has been thoroughly inspected and approved by a licensed electrician. Never purchase a home with K&T wiring without getting a professional electrical inspection first.

Key considerations include:

  • Safety and Condition: An inspector will verify that the wiring is safe and has not deteriorated. Over time, the insulation can wear away, leaving exposed wires that pose a significant fire or shock hazard.

  • System Capacity: The electrical service should be at least 60 amps. However, even at this capacity, K&T systems often struggle to handle the demands of modern appliances and electronics.

  • Lack of Grounding: Knob and tube wiring is an ungrounded system, which is a safety concern for many modern devices.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: If you live in a home with K&T wiring, it's recommended to have it inspected by an electrician every one to two years to ensure it remains in safe working order.

Ultimately, any inspection or modification of a knob and tube system should always be performed by a certified professional.

Without regular proactive maintenance, your home and the things in it will wear out, break, or otherwise deteriorate much faster than they would with routine maintenance. Regular home maintenance also helps to prevent major problems down the road. For example, regular gutter cleaning will help avoid roof and foundation problems caused by pooling water and improper drainage. 

Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.

After you pass your wind mitigation inspection, you’ll receive a report you can send to your insurance company when you request a discount. This report is valid for five years. If you switch providers within that five-year window, your new insurer may ask you to get another inspection if you want a discounted premium.

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.
