First off, Mark expects you to be present for the inspection. Not only does he inspect the home, but he will educate you on any aspect of home maintenance and repair, and he is very receptive to questions. At the end of the inspection, he hands you the original inspection paperwork, which is about 20 pages of organized notes, and a 120+ page home systems guide. All this is packaged in a very nice binder that will serve as a perfect reference for how to care for the home. Being mechanically inclined, my husband was looking forward to learning as much as he could about what to do for the home and he was not disappointed. The inspection took 5 hours, there was nothing left to chance or assumed, all areas of the exterior and interior of the house were examined. All appliances were tested, and all attic areas were entered. Mark was extremely professional, and exuded the attitude that this was an opportunity to teach my husband everything he could about the house. He gave off a very comforting feeling that he was working for us and not anyone else. Bottom line, there was only one issue that Mark didn?t feel comfortable signing off on and that was the electrical system. There were a total of 5 circuit breaker boxes in the house, installed at different times during different upgrades. Figuring out how to effectively shut off power to the house and whether all the electrical additions were within code was something Mark recommended an electrician look at. At the end of the inspection Mark went over all the notes line by line on the inspection again, and took any other questions that my husband had making sure that everything was perfectly clear. If you truly care to know if the house that you are buying is safe, as well as how to maintain it that way, you could ask for no better inspector than Mark Londner and LBI Home Inspection.
