What is a Full Home Inspection:  A home inspection is a thorough visual examination of the home. From the foundation to the roof, inside and out, all the major systems in the home are evaluated. All issues observed in the home are documented in a detailed computer generated narrative style report with digital photos of the most significant concerns. A picture is worth a thousand words and I will take as many as needed to detail the condition of the property.  Our Full Inspection includes evaluating the following:  Roof, vents, flashings, and trim. Gutters and downspouts. Skylights, chimney and other roof penetrations. Decks, stoops, porches, walkways, and railings. Eaves, soffit and fascia. Grading and drainage. Basement, foundation and crawlspace. Water penetration and foundation movements. Heating systems. Cooling systems. Main water shut off valves. Water heating systems. Interior plumbing fixtures and faucets. Drain tile sump pumps with accessible floats. Electrical service line and meter box. Main disconnect and service amperage. Electrical panels, breakers and fuses. Grounding and bonding. GFCI outlets. Fireplace damper door and hearth. Insulation and ventilation. Garage doors, safety sensors and openers. And much much more.  How long will it take & should you be there:  The inspection normally takes around 2 1/2 - 3 hours to complete. Your inspection will never be cut short, as I stay on site until I have all the information we need. If the report is done on site, that will take extra time depending on the condition of the home. You, the customer, are encouraged to be there at least for part of the inspection. After all this is the perfect time for you to ask questions about the systems in your home and how they work. Make a list of your questions & concerns and bring them along. I will be glad to answer them as best I can. There will be a Pre-Inspection Agreement that you will need to sign. Payment for the inspection should be brought to the inspection. Personal checks or cash are accepted.  What the Inspections not:  The inspection is a visual evaluation of the home and home's systems on the day of the inspection and is not technically exhaustive. The inspection report should not be considered as a warranty. Equipment can and will break down in time. There is no assurance expressed or implied that the equipment will not fail in the future. Home inspectors cannot see through walls, floors, and foundations. We can not inspect areas or items that are inaccessible to us. It is an inspection of areas and items that can be seen. A home inspection does not detect every flaw. We Can Book Your Inspection Within 24 Hours In Most Cases Seven Day Booking Ability - When You Are Working. . . We Are Too!
