Licensed home inspector working for mainly buyers and sellers in the States of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Starting fee for inspections are $275.00. I am a 1 employee company which is owned by myself, not a franchise. All fee's are to be paid at the time of service's.

"In June of 2018 Steven Hatcher from SafeGuard home inspection came and inspected the home we were purchasing. The report he gave stated little to concerned about so we believed everything was great and went forward with the purchase. However when we then moved in it’s been nothing but problems and at this point it has financially ruined our family. The things he missed are staggering. Plumbing, electrical and structural. We got two licensed plumbers who are home inspectors and one electrician. All of them said he is either blind, ignorant and incompetent or he did a professional favor for the seller who was also a supposed licensed home inspector. Or all of the above. We can’t use the washer because it’s plumbed into the sump pump tied incorrectly into the sewer line. We can’t use the dishwasher because the drain line was put in the main sewer line and caulked to seal it, this was blatantly visible and not code. Shower put in upside down, sink not mounted or plumbed correct. Exposed wiring and so much more that it take a book to write it all down. He is not an inspector but a fraud and I’m sure lazy because he did a lousy job. We can’t drain water we barely can use one toilet. We are devastated. We talked to a lawyer but it would be over 20k, the work is over 50k or more. If he just did his job and caught even a fraction of the major code violations we would never had bought. We put our life savings in to buy and now we have no way to fix this we may have to just walk away. The inspectors we paid after the fact couldn’t believe he could be that bad. If we gotten a real inspector we wouldn’t be in this mess. We found out any fool can be an inspector in this state there are no requirements. We found out the hard way and it cost us everything. If we could give him lower than an F we would. Please don’t ever ever use Him."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

It’s a good idea to be present for a home inspection so the inspector has access to anything they need for the inspection and so you can ask the home inspector questions if necessary. You don’t need to shadow the inspector while they’re conducting the inspection—in fact, it’s better if you don’t—but don’t go too far in case they need access to something or have any questions.

Using your realtor’s inspector may potentially speed up the home-buying process in that realtors are unlikely to recommend someone they’ve had prior difficulties with regarding scheduling or report turnaround time. There are other factors to consider, though—you don’t want a rushed inspection or a partial report. It’s more important that you work with a home inspector who can do a thorough assessment and explain any issues to you clearly.

Inspectors working for the seller on pre-listing inspections can present a conflict of interest, so standard home inspections are usually hired and paid for by the buyer. If the buyer has some negotiating power, they might request that the seller cover the cost (by taking it off the asking price), but this varies on a case-by-case basis. When it comes to home appraisal costs and pre-listing inspections, the seller will naturally have to pay, as these are done before the home is left up for sale.

You can determine if your ductwork needs rerouting by looking for common signs of issues. Uneven heating or cooling in different areas of your home, unusual noises from the ducts, and a noticeable increase in energy bills may all indicate problems with your duct system. Additionally, if you've recently renovated or there are structural changes in your home, it's a good idea to assess whether your current ductwork layout is still efficient. 

For most homeowners, a plumbing inspection costs $100 to $500. It depends on the location, the type of inspection, and the size of your home. A simple visual inspection will cost up to $200, while a camera inspection that checks your underground sewer lines can cost more than $1,000. Nonetheless, this may still be a better option than tearing up your underground plumbing to find the problem.
