"We had already purchased our home so I wanted to get information about insulation levels, window quality, etc. The information we got from the inspection was limited to these aspects."
"Want to go on record to say that service was excellent from initial contact and a thorough timely evaluation and appraisal with supporting documentation. I found the work to be very professional and was done in an expedient fashion. Company was very transparent in pricing and I found their actual pricepoint to be more than fair for the final rendered report. That said, I would gladly use this company again if I had the need."
"We got our windows done by Dabella this winter. We went with the triple pane windows and couldn't be happier with our decision. There were many color/design options and we got exactly what I was looking for. I appreciated the Dabella salesman's design/professional recommendations and walking us through each step of the process. For example, he recommended the kitchen window open up and down instead of left and right which it was before. I can see our backyard instead of a wooden bar while doing dishes now. I noticed a huge difference in the quality and look compared to our old windows. When I first came home after the install, I literally said “I can see out of our windows so well!” I didn't even realize how bad our old windows were until that moment. Our energy bill has gone down over $100 a month since the install. Besides the savings, our house feels so much better. It feels cool on hot days and warm & cozy on cold days. This is even with our curtains wide open to get natural light"

"Andy is very knowledgeable, and gave great recommendations on what projects to tackle first on our new home built in 1900. He was able to get the inspection done within 2 days, when the seller was requiring it within a week."
Yes, a crawl space can add value to your home. However, there is a higher chance of it adding value if it is an enclosed crawl space, as this reduces issues caused by excess moisture in the home. That being said, a basement does add more value than a crawl space.
Homeowners usually do not have to update existing systems unless they are doing significant renovations. Consult your local building codes or ask a knowledgeable local contractor for the details.
Houses built on pier and beam foundations will be elevated off the ground, will have a crawl space, and will most likely have stairs at the main entrance. Pier and beam foundations will also have vents spaced out along the foundation to allow for airflow and moisture control in the crawl space.
DIY is not recommended due to specialized equipment requirements. Professional services ensure accurate diagnostics.
In most cases, a roof inspection will include a visual inspection of the exterior roofing materials, an interior inspection for signs of leaking or roof damage, and an assessment of the structural stability of your roof and the materials supporting it.
Some things your roof inspector will look for include the following:
Missing or damaged shingles, flashing, or sealant
Signs of old age
Signs of leaks, including mold growth and water stains
Potential issues, like tree branches touching your roof
Signs of a loss of structural integrity
