How do you know when a house should be demolished?

• <div><p>You might consider demolishing a house if it has a faulty foundation, widespread mold or pest damage, or other significant issues. Older homes with outdated wiring systems or dangerous materials could also be good candidates for demolition. Or, if you’re planning to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/complete-house-renovation-cost.htm">remodel the entire home</a>, you might find that it’s more cost-effective to tear it all down and start from scratch.</p></div>

Where would asbestos be in my home?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-can-i-tell-if-house-has-asbestos.htm">Asbestos</a> can be found in many building materials, especially if the materials were installed more than 20 years ago. Asbestos-containing materials (ACM) can include:</p><ul><li><p>Acoustic ceiling tiles</p></li><li><p>Furnace insulation</p></li><li><p>Home appliances</p></li><li><p>Fire-retardant clothing</p></li><li><p>Cement pipe</p></li><li><p>Pipe insulation</p></li><li><p>Wall and ceiling insulation</p></li><li><p>Vehicle brake pads</p></li><li><p>Vinyl flooring</p></li><li><p>Sprayed acoustic ceilings</p></li><li><p>Stove insulation</p></li><li><p>Patching compounds</p></li><li><p>Textured paints</p></li><li><p>Roofing shingles</p></li><li><p>Siding</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

What is the biggest red flag in a home inspection?

• <div><p>In most cases, the most severe issue a home inspection report could identify is a structural problem, specifically related to the foundation. Foundation repairs are often the most expensive and intrusive repairs to carry out, averaging around $5,000 but sometimes reaching up to $16,000. You should <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-to-ask-during-home-inspection.htm">ask questions during your home inspection</a> about all of the issues your home inspector identifies, but you’ll likely need to think most about foundation problems and how they affect what you’re willing to pay for the home—that’s if you’re willing to move forward with the sale at all.</p></div>

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.</p></div>

Q: Do services include video inspections?
