Home Wise is the premeir inspection business located in colchester Vermont.Home Wise has been serving Vermont home buyers and sellers since 2004. Wheather your buying or selling, having a home inspevction is a Wise decision.

"Disappointed. Inspection report contained factual errors and failed to note deficiencies we talked about during the inspection. For instance, it refers to asbestos ceiling s that are not present and failed to note a section of flooring that is a potential asbestos containing material. Noted some cracks in foundation, but did not cute others. When I pointed this out and asked him to correct the report, he refused and said I need to get an engineer. Call the furnace oil burning when it gas. Made multiple comments about tripping hazards while on site, but report says there are no tripping hazards. I specifically showed him problems with kitchen cabinets, and report says they are in good working order. The report is 27 pages long, but there is a HUGE amount of repeated text and duplicated legal disclaimer boilerplate. If he stated the disclaimers once and didn't cut and paste the same text so much, the report would be less than half as many pages. And the report says right on front page that it's for my exclusive use, and he won't send it to anyone else without my permission, but when I got the first copy of by email he had copied my real estate broker. Not a problem, but not what he said he'd do. After I got first copy, I emailed back with comments and questions. Got no response to this or follow up email, so called a couple days later. He hadn't even looked at his email. All in all, my impression is that Bruce is most interested in covering his butt, and keeping his notes as neutral as possible. Not very helpful. I've used other home inspectors in past that were better."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes, in most cases, you can back out of your offer if you’re unsatisfied with something in the inspection. However, there is usually no recourse for doing so. The only exception would be if you waived the home inspection, a somewhat common practice to get your offer accepted in a highly competitive market. Waiving the home inspection doesn’t prevent you from getting an inspection, but you usually can’t walk away from the home after the inspection if there’s something wrong.

Older homes normally take longer to inspect than newer ones. Old homes are more prone to damage, deterioration, or outdated systems and features, and an inspector will need to note the condition of the home and anything in it that may need to be updated or repaired.

No, a standard home inspection includes the basics and does not offer lead paint testing. Professional lead paint inspectors need specific licenses to perform these inspections, which not all home inspectors have. If you suspect lead paint in the home you are about to purchase, you will need to pay separately to have that done. If the findings come back positive, you may be able to negotiate with the buyer to cover the cost of the removal.

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

You can test your ductwork by hiring a technician to attach a vacuum to the ductwork near the HVAC unit and put the vent system under pressure. Your pro can use a duct leak tester to measure the amount of pressure that's escaping. 

You can also do a DIY test using an incense stick or smoke pencil. With the HVAC system running, pass the stick or pencil across the ductwork. Pay attention to the movement of the smoke. When you notice it changing, it could be a sign there’s a leak or bad connection in the duct.
