"The walk through went very well, Jacob was informative and professional, just what was needed. This was the 2nd walk through Jacob did for me. He saved me from buying a previous house that was in deceptively poor condition. I would absolutely use Jacob again!!"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

The three main types of home inspections you should always carry out for new construction include a pre-drywall inspection, a post-drywall inspection, and a one-year inspection. The pre-drywall inspection can identify building code violations, issues with plumbing, electrical, and HVAC components, and structural issues. The post-drywall inspection can identify damaged building materials, insufficient insulation, and more. An inspection at the one-year mark after construction will identify problems your builder must fix under their comprehensive one-year warranty.

Generally, you can tell if a home is bolted to the foundation by checking the foundation for plates. If you see that your foundational plates connect to wood or bolts protruding from them, this means that you have a bolted foundation. However, it's always wise to bring a home inspector in to confirm if your foundation is secure.

Homes should be checked for mold annually, especially if you live in an area with high humidity or frequent rainfall. Inspections are crucial following flooding, roof leaks, or plumbing issues. More frequent checks are necessary if your home has a history of mold problems or water damage. Regular inspections help detect mold early, preventing costly remediation and minimizing health risks, especially in moisture-prone areas such as basements and bathrooms.

There are a few things that can set off your carbon monoxide detector that aren’t an emergency. Low batteries or a malfunctioning system are usually the biggest culprits, but dust and dirt can build up on the sensor and cause issues, too. If you have a single unit that serves as both a carbon monoxide and smoke detector, extreme humidity (like the kind coming from a shower) can accidentally set it off. 

Unfortunately, home inspections do not check for asbestos because of the liability factor involved. That’s why you should hire a trained professional with specialized equipment to test for it. 

They will inspect all areas of the home and take samples of various materials to test. Opting for an asbestos inspection can prevent the risk of exposure to this hazardous material and save on costly repairs that may be required.
