How do I prepare my whole house for a repipe?

• <div><p>Repiping your home creates a large mess, and you won’t have access to water while your contractors are working. To prepare, contractors will cover the floor and furniture with drop clothes. In some cases, they may move furniture to protect it and get it out of the way. They’ll then cut holes in your walls, floors, and ceiling to expose the existing pipes.</p><p>They’ll also turn off your water, but they’ll leave at least one bathroom and the kitchen functioning at the end of the day. You’ll need to plan accordingly.</p></div>

Can you apply for a homeowners insurance policy without an inspection?

• <div><p>Yes, you can get a quote from a home insurance company without an inspection. However, if the insurer mandates one, you may have to determine <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-pays-for-the-home-inspection.htm">who will pay for the inspection</a> and submit it with your application so they can provide you with an accurate quote. </p></div>

Q: Is it good to have cobwebs in your house?

• <div><p>Having cobwebs in your home indicates you may have an issue with spiders entering your property. While spiders are mostly harmless, some venomous bites can cause human problems, such as a brown recluse or black widow. Regular vacuuming and dusting, keeping clutter to a minimum, and keeping your lawn trimmed and tidy are a few natural ways to keep spiders out of your home and remove the temptations that <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-attracts-spiders.htm">attract spiders</a>.</p></div>

Q: Does a home inspector test for air quality?

• <div><p>In some cases, a home inspector tests the indoor air quality if properly certified. Most of the time, however, they&rsquo;ll outsource the work to a professional air quality consultant. Testing indoor air for pollutants requires several certifications and a suite of specialized tools. Many HVAC and home inspection pros have this certification.</p></div>

They arrived right on time. Was in and out in less than 30 minutes. Thought that would do more thorough inspection of hot water heater, but guess it was just ok. Did take care of the squeal in the master bath toilet which was main reason I wanted them there.
