Home Inspection- What we Inspect?

During a home inspection, professional inspectors evaluate the following key areas to assess the property’s overall condition:

1. Structural Elements: Foundation, walls, roof, and framing to ensure stability and safety.

2. Roof: Roof covering, gutters, and flashing to check for leaks, wear, and damage.

3. Plumbing: Pipes, faucets, water heater, and drainage for leaks, corrosion, and functionality.

4. Electrical Systems: Wiring, outlets, panels, and fixtures to ensure safety and code compliance.

5. HVAC System: Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning for efficiency and condition.

6. Interior and Exterior: Walls, floors, windows, doors, siding, and exterior structures for signs of wear or damage.

7. Insulation and Ventilation: Insulation levels and ventilation in attics and crawl spaces for energy efficiency and moisture control.

8. Built-In Appliances: Testing major built-in appliances to ensure they’re operational.

9. Safety Features: Smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and other safety systems.
