Home Inspections

Home Inspections are important and recommended for every client. This is not an exhaustive list but from the outside of the home they check the roof, gutters, and downspouts. They check windows, screens and paint to be sure there is not chipped paint or missing caulking, they check vinyl siding, decks for spongy or rotten wood, banisters and hand rails, concrete stairs for any cracks and if accessible, the crawlspace. Interior (Inside) they check attic rafters and all electrical and plumbing so it is important that all utilities are on. They will check electrical outlets, all light sockets, ceiling fans, smoke detectors and appliances if they are present to be sure they work. Also, the inspector will check, if there is a garage, that doors are functional. Home inspectors look to be sure the house is solid and safe. They don't care about how pretty the paint is.
