"Top notch work! These guys really want the customer to be happy with the job. I had 200 Amp Service installed plus a 50 Amp sub-panel on a new garage. Brad Basham came out to do the estimate and he was one step ahead of me the whole way knowing exactly what was needed for a quality job exceeding my expectations. He suggested a surge suppressor on the panel for my needs before I did after describing my requirements and use of the electric service. I wanted a particular sub-panel for a 50A RV hook-up and he understood why and went out of his way to get the proper equipment. The guys showed up and did a better job than I could. They would even ask for my input on multiple ways to run the service and sub-panel to make sure the customer was happy. Unbelievable top notch work from start to finish."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Inspectors working for the seller on pre-listing inspections can present a conflict of interest, so standard home inspections are usually hired and paid for by the buyer. If the buyer has some negotiating power, they might request that the seller cover the cost (by taking it off the asking price), but this varies on a case-by-case basis. When it comes to home appraisal costs and pre-listing inspections, the seller will naturally have to pay, as these are done before the home is left up for sale.

Crawl spaces are prone to issues caused by excess humidity and improper ventilation, but that doesn’t mean you should avoid buying a house with a crawl space. A home that is encapsulated and well-maintained shouldn’t have any more issues than a slab or basement home.

To prepare for a pre-drywall inspection, make sure to schedule the inspection before your drywall (and preferably insulation) is installed, but after all ductwork, plumbing, electrical wiring, and framing are in. You should also print a copy of your floor plan for your inspector, which they’ll use to make sure the build matches up. Lastly, try to clear the home of major obstacles (tools, large stacks of material, etc.) to allow the inspector access to the places they need to check.

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.

On average, home inspections cost about $350, ranging from $200 to $500, depending on the home’s size, age, and location, plus any specialty inspections required. Additional cost factors include testing for asbestos or conducting thermal imaging tests to find infestations, checking energy efficiency, and looking for structural or electrical problems. If your home is more than 2,000 square feet, you can expect to pay $400 or more.
