"I recently had the pleasure of working with Larry and John for a home inspection, and I couldn't be more impressed with the experience. From start to finish, they were thorough, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. John took the time to walk me through every detail, explaining what was being inspected and why it mattered. Johnâ s keen eye for detail and commitment to quality gave me great confidence in the home I was purchasing. Communication was seamless, and the final report was clear, comprehensive, and easy to understand. John even provided helpful tips for future maintenance, which was a great added touch. If you're looking for a home inspector who is reliable, trustworthy, and truly cares about their clients, I highly recommend Larry/John."

"Matt Barnes is amazing! We are first time home buyers and were worried about hiring someone who wouldn’t be thorough… We were astonished at how thorough he was. He found numerous issues, we ended up not purchasing the house because of structural damage and plan on using Matt for the next home! He provided us with a very detailed 32 page report that went over everything from the front porch, to the oven, to hand railings."

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.

Start by asking friends, family, and neighbors if they know any reliable roof inspectors. You can also ask contractors that you’ve worked with in the past—they often have a network of people they can reach out to. Once you do find a roof inspector you like, check their online presence, read customer reviews, and give them a call. 

Make sure they’re properly licensed and insured in your area. It’s also a good idea to hire inspectors licensed by both the National Roof Certification & Inspection Association (NRCIA) and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI).

The person who requests the inspection should select the inspector themselves. This way, there are no conflicts of interest, and the inspection report offers an objective, unbiased look into the condition of the property.

Without regular proactive maintenance, your home and the things in it will wear out, break, or otherwise deteriorate much faster than they would with routine maintenance. Regular home maintenance also helps to prevent major problems down the road. For example, regular gutter cleaning will help avoid roof and foundation problems caused by pooling water and improper drainage. 

Yes, you can negotiate repairs after a home inspection. You can talk to the homeowner about either completing any repairs or deducting the cost of those repairs from the price of the home.
