"Jordan and Jim both were wonderful resources of information. They even thought of solutions for a floor damaged by the high humidity below in the crawlspace that a flooring company had not thought of and said was brilliant. The encapsulation was performed by a very skilled and educated crew, and they left the job site clean of trash and debris each day. Soon after the encapsulation, I listed my home for sale, and the buyer's home inspector said that it was one of the best encapsulations he'd seen. Strongly recommend this company."

"I am not lying when I saw that EnviroFry is the best business/company I have ever worked with or hired in my entire life. My son was severely ill with mold illness and PANS and it took FOUR mold companies to find all of the hidden mold in our home… EnviroFry was the company that finally found all of the mold. They are like mold finding ninjas. Not only are they the most skilled at what they do (I would literally fly them across the globe if I had to because they are the only ones I trust) but they are the most amazing, kind, compassionate, and loving people… just the type of people you need with you and advising you when you are scared and overwhelmed. We have now been back in our home for 3 years and everyone is healthy and doing great. We had a successful remediation. I recommend them to everyone I know and they have helped so many friends and family members of mine and all of them feel the same as I do about their excellence."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

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.

A home inspection and a home appraisal serve different purposes. A home inspection is a visual evaluation of the property's overall condition to identify any structural problems or issues with major systems like electrical and plumbing. Its main goal is to assess the home's long-term safety and determine if repairs are needed before a sale. In contrast, a home appraisal is a thorough evaluation of the property and its surrounding area to determine its current fair market value. This value helps set the asking price and guides the mortgage company’s lending decision. The average cost for both a home inspection and a home appraisal is around $350 each.

Getting a mobile home inspection is a key part of any buying or selling process, as it evaluates the mobile home's condition and identifies potential issues before they become major problems and lead to high repair costs. A mobile home inspection also helps sellers pinpoint areas that need attention before listing the home for sale, ensuring a smooth transaction and potentially increasing the home's value.

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.

Structural engineers can perform various inspections on different structures in your home. These inspections usually include a report detailing the engineer’s findings and recommendations for repairs so you can determine your next course of action for repairs, replacements, or new builds. Some of the most common structural engineering reports include:

  • Full home inspection: $350–$1,000

  • Foundation: $300–$800

  • Load-bearing walls: $300–$1,000

  • Roof: $150–$600

  • Chimney: $200–$500
