Whether you're a buyer, a seller, or a current homeowner, a quality home inspection gives you a critical snapshot of a home's condition. A professional inspection will help buyers understand the current condition of the home they are about to purchase and sellers determine what to upgrade or repair prior to listing. Longtime homeowners should consider an inspection every 10 years or so to keep on top of potential problems and ongoing maintenance. Dogwood Home Inspection Services will perform a detailed non-invasive inspection of the home's structure, exterior, roof, plumbing, electrical, heating and air conditioning, interior, ventilation, appliances and fireplaces. From this inspection, we'll generate a comprehensive report with photos, and carefully review our findings with you. We want to be sure you clearly understand where either minor or major repairs or upgrades are required or recommended, and ensure that you know what will be required to maintain the systems we inspect.

"This will be a difficult review to write. I never like to be so negative, however this situation warrants it. I called â In His Timeâ repair to deal with a dishwasher problem where the machine had difficulty starting a cycle. The owner, Terry Wilson, came out and immediately diagnosed the problem to be the electronic panel. He explained that LG dishwashers were notorious with these panels failing and needing replacement. This diagnosis was seemingly very easy for him to define, he explained that this was very common. He recommended that if I was comfortable with doing basic repairs that I could order the part myself and install it to save myself any additional expenses. I felt comfortable with his ease of explanation and knowledge of what he was saying. He also told me I should expect to replace this panel every few years because it will eventually fail again. I was obviously disappointed to hear this but given todayâ s state of appliance quality, I wasnâ t shocked. I paid him his service fee of $65 and then proceeded to order the $195 panel. Once I received it, I installed it without too much difficulty. Unfortunately, it had absolutely no effect on my problem. After repeated attempts to contact Terry Wilson, he called me back. When I told him what I encountered he immediately told me how I made the mistake of buying the part when he recommended that I should have purchased a new dishwasher. I tried to explain to him that we never discussed buying a new dishwasher but he wouldnâ t hear of it and emphatically told me that this was his recommendation. It was obvious that he wasnâ t interested in entertaining any other option and rather than get into an argument with him I politely ended the conversation and said good-bye. i subsequently did more research and discovered that a common solution to my problem showed it was probably related to the latch switch. I found I could get one of those for $50 and ordered it. It was easy to install and immediately fixed the problem. So, in the end, I was in over $250 by using â In His Timeâ to help me falsely diagnose the problem and then when I explained to him the situation Terry wasnâ t even remotely open to the idea that he might have misdiagnosed the situation."

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

The best way to clean fireplace bricks is to use a mild solution on saturated bricks. An equal mixture of water and vinegar or a drop of dish soap in a bowl of water can help remove grime from fireplace bricks. Make sure you wet the bricks thoroughly before applying the cleaner and rinse them after you’re done to prevent damage.

If you would rather use vinegar to clean the stone fireplace instead of dish soap, this mixture should work fine. Vinegar is slightly acidic, however, so it may etch some kinds of stone without quite a bit of diluting. For a stone fireplace, dilute it to about one cup of vinegar for every gallon of hot water. It’s a smart idea to test the diluted mixture in an inconspicuous area of the fireplace and watch for etching. You can use vinegar to clean quite a few different items around your home, and it’s especially good at removing stains.

Compared to certain types of firewood like pine or spruce—which burn off sticky resin contained within the wood that creates lots of smoke—elm isn’t the worst option for burning in a fireplace.

Because elm wood is dense, it burns at a moderate pace and does a pretty good job of keeping your home warm. Hardwood like maple or oak may perform slightly better, but elm isn’t a bad choice overall.

Costs depend on material, labor, gas line setup, and custom design elements.

Chimney liners often benefit from insulation, though it is not always required. Insulation helps improve the liner's efficiency by keeping flue gasses hotter, which enhances draft and reduces creosote buildup. It also prevents condensation, which can lead to corrosion. Insulation is important for chimneys on exterior walls or in colder climates. Some building codes may require insulation, so checking local regulations is essential.
