What is inspected?
Roof Structure:
The type, style, layers, quality installation and more are checked. We will perform a diligent inspection of both sides of the roof. Attic ventilation and insulation play an extremely important role in moisture, condensation, roof life and so much more – truly a key factor in how your home is functioning.
Foundation/Structure/Drainage:
We complete a thorough inspection on the inside and the outside of the structure: foundation, crawl spaces, walls, doors, ceilings, and floors. Inadequate or reversed drainage and grading cause most water problems on a structure. Proper gutters and downspouts are another important factor in moisture control around the foundation.
Heating/Cooling:
We look at the age, condition, and safety of each, and in most cases, these are the most used appliances in the home. The wrong burn pattern and moisture production in a gas furnace can cause premature heat exchanger failure and possibly carbon monoxide.
Electrical:
We check for double tapping of breakers, undersized wiring, unsecured wiring, GFCI’s, AFCI’s, open ground or reversed polarity outlets, and much more!
