Q: Why is there a skunky smell in my house?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;ve spotted a skunk or know that one of these furry creatures sprayed one of your family members, your answer is fairly obvious. However, a skunky smell in your house that isn&rsquo;t coming from these critters may be a sign of a dangerous gas leak. If you suspect this, leave your home immediately and call emergency services. It could also be a build-up of dangerous gas in your home&rsquo;s septic system or plumbing. Call a professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/plumbers/">plumber near you</a> to make an assessment. </p></div>

Q: Is it worth buying a home with knob and tube wiring?

• <div><p>If you want to buy a home that has knob and tube wiring, you should get an inspection first. An electrical inspector can take a thorough look at the wiring and make sure that it's completely safe for your home and has no potential to cause fires or disrupt the overall wiring in your home. Never buy a house with knob and tube wiring without first getting an inspection by a certified and vetted electrician.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to stay in a house with smoke damage?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/living-in-house-with-smoke-damage.htm">Living in a house with smoke damage</a> could be safe on a temporary basis, but it depends on the severity and type of smoke damage. If you have major smoke damage or soot present from a fire, you should relocate to keep you and your family safe. Breathing in soot can cause respiratory issues, and it can contain carcinogens, so move out until you get professional remediation done. Your insurance company may cover the cost for alternative housing while your professional works.</p></div>

Q: Can I skip a home inspection?

• <div><p>There are some instances where a buyer may want to skip a home inspection, but this is not usually recommended. While home inspections are not always required as part of the homebuying or selling process, they are in the best interest of buyers. If you choose to skip the home inspection, be prepared to discover a home&rsquo;s hidden secrets on your own over time.</p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover shower pan leaks?

• <div><p>Homeowners insurance may cover shower pan leaks, but it depends on the type of coverage you&rsquo;re looking for. Typically, home insurance policies cover sudden or accidental water damage, for example, if it comes from a busted pipe or malfunctioning appliance. Damage to a shower pan is usually gradual. A repair or replacement of your shower pan usually won&rsquo;t be covered by your policy. If your shower pan leak causes water damage, chances are your standard policy&mdash;if it includes water damage&mdash;will cover the repair.</p></div>
