Get matched with top home inspectors in Claverack, NY

Q: Are mold inspections worth it?

• <div><p>Mold inspections are worth it because they can catch troublesome mold problems early before they get out of hand. It's worth it to address mold problems as soon as possible because mold can be hazardous to your health and cause damage to your home and its belongings. Mold testing and inspections are the best way to know if you have a mold issue in your house.</p></div>

Q: How do you detect a septic field?

• <div><p>Start by finding the septic tank, marked by an access lid near your home. From there, the drain field extends outward in a series of trenches. Look for greener, lusher grass, as drain fields promote plant growth due to moisture and fertilizer. You can also check property records, use a soil probe to detect damp soil, or hire a septic professional with ground-penetrating radar equipment to map the drain field&rsquo;s location. </p></div>

Q: Can using my realtor’s inspector speed up the home-buying process?

• <div><p>Using your realtor&rsquo;s inspector may potentially speed up the home-buying process in that realtors are unlikely to recommend someone they&rsquo;ve had prior difficulties with regarding scheduling or report turnaround time. There are other factors to consider, though&mdash;you don&rsquo;t want a rushed inspection or a partial report. It&rsquo;s more important that you work with a home inspector who can do a thorough assessment and explain any issues to you clearly.</p></div>

Q: How often should I have my HVAC system inspected?

• <div><p>Experts suggest your HVAC system should be inspected once per year. If you&rsquo;re buying a new home, it&rsquo;s also a good idea to have the house&rsquo;s HVAC system professionally checked before the final sale. For HVAC systems older than 10 years, it&rsquo;s recommended they are inspected twice per year. If you suspect a problem, you should schedule an inspection, even if you&rsquo;ve already had one this year.</p></div>

Q: How long does a pre-drywall inspection take?

• <div><p>The time it takes to complete a pre-drywall inspection depends on the size of the home as well as the complexity of its build. Most take between one and three hours, but large custom homes or those with complicated HVAC, electrical, or plumbing systems take even longer. Your inspector will examine each room and each system in detail to make sure everything is properly installed and up to code.</p></div>
