"Joshua Madison was punctual and professional as Introduced himself to me and identified company for whom he worked. He verified, with me, that he was at the correct home and then explained the process he used for his inspections. Throughout the day he kept me informed of his progress and if I ventured into the area he was working, he stopped and showed me various connections and pipes which I found interesting and educational. Joshua was knowledgeable about the wiring and plumbing in a well structured home of 111 years and I appreciated him sharing information with me. I would easily recommend Joshua Madison and his company, Ridge & Valley Home Inspection, LLC, to anyone who asked. He did a wonderful job and I had my digital copy of his report in less then 24 hours with photographs and notes as needed. Triple AAA Service!!"

"Neil took the time to answer all of our questions as first time homebuyers and did a comprehensive inspection that is going to save us a lot of grief! He was thorough and patient! We got radon testing so that’s included in the cost."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

You can check your home's humidity in a few ways. A simple option is to use a hygrometer, which you can find at a hardware or big box store. Your smartphone may also have an app that can measure humidity. Modern thermostats, particularly smart thermostats, are also able to measure humidity levels.

A home inspection is always worth it when buying a home, as it can reveal major issues with a home that could cost you thousands of dollars post-closing. If it doesn’t uncover any issues, then you have some peace of mind that you won’t have to lay out tens of thousands of dollars in repairs after you close.

Most areas require both a building permit and an electrical permit for the installation of a home wind turbine. You may also need zoning approval, especially if your property is in a residential neighborhood or near protected land. Inspections are needed after foundation work and upon completion of electrical connections. Permit costs can range from $100 to $1,000, depending on local regulations and project complexity.

Typically, a home inspection takes about two to three hours, depending on the size of the home, the complexity of the layout, the various structures and features, the age of the home, and the condition of the home. During the hiring process, ask your potential home inspector to review the specifications of your home and provide an accurate time estimate for the service.

A mold inspection, especially in homes with a history of water damage or high humidity, is critical for maintaining a healthy living space. Mold can cause respiratory issues, allergic reactions, and other health problems, particularly for individuals with asthma or weakened immune systems. Unchecked mold growth can lead to structural damage, resulting in costly repairs. A thorough inspection identifies visible mold and uncovers hidden sources to allow for timely remediation, preventing further damage and health risks.
