"I have had All American do inspections on 3 properties that I purchased in the last twenty years. I have found Dan, Tina and the crew to be thorough and honest with me about issues with home problems both near and future. He and the crew are obviously experienced in home construction and have always pointed out problems that we would never have seen. He prioritizes the repairs by need, which helps tremendously in responding to sellers. I believe three inspections with Dan pretty much should say everything you need to know. Tom T."

"Jon was INCREDIBLE. He did a thorough home inspection and actually changed my mind in buying the home. He was on time, and his sheet on the criteria of the home was immaculate and easy to read. Will definitely be reaching out for any inspection I ever have. A+++"

"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."

"It went really well. The technicians gave me an excellent overview of what needed to be done so that we could work w/permitting, as inspectors, and our local electric company. In short they were knowledgeable, considerate, and really easy to work with."

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.

A convenient method to verify your warranty status is by visiting the manufacturer's website and entering your unit's serial number. The relevant information should promptly appear. However, if it doesn't, there's a possibility that you may have unintentionally voided the warranty by neglecting to register your equipment at the time of installation. If you did register and need help finding the information, you may need to call the manufacturer's customer support team.

Normal home inspections do not include sewer lines or septic systems, hazardous materials like radon or mold, swimming pools, electrical systems, or pest problems. Most of these require a separate inspection by a qualified pro in addition to a general home inspection.

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.

The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.
