Your Home Inspection
What is a Home Inspection?
The Home Inspection is a limited, non-invasive, visual examination of the current condition of a residential building. Designed to report observed deficiencies within specific systems and components of a home. The report provides a description of the condition of the home based on observations of the visible and apparent condition of the structure and components at the time of the home inspection.
​
​
The Home Inspection Does Not:
-
guarantee future condition, efficiency, and life expectancy of systems components
-
verify compliance with any applicable building codes, municipal bylaws, or other regulations
How Long Does an Inspection Take?
Depending on the size of the home, the inspection takes 2 1/2 to 3 hours. The client is encouraged to be there ad this one-to-one time with the inspector is extremely valuable.
What is Inspected?
A home inspector shall inspect readily accessible, visually observable, installed systems and components of a residential building using typical, fixed operational controls and report identifiable deficiencies of specific systems and components including:
-
Exterior systems
-
Roofing, Flashing, Penetrations, and Chimney
-
Structural systems
-
Plumbing systems
-
Electrical systems
-
Interior components
-
Heating, Ventilation, and Cooling (HVAC) systems
-
Fireplaces and Solid fuel burning appliances (this is not a WETT inspection)
-
Insulation and Ventilation of Attic, Crawlspaces, and Unfinished basements
For quick access in case of an emergency, I will mark the main water shutoff and gas shutoff with a bright yellow card.
When Will I Get The Report?
Within 24 hours of the inspection, you will receive an electronic, easy-to-use report. This report includes dozens of pictures of the house, a detailed report, and links to hundreds of helpful drawings and descriptions.
I am available to answer any questions and to go over your report.​
