Different Elements of Your Home
Common practices for electricity has changed over the years as you see in the pictures of the old fuse panel and the newer breaker panel. No matter the age of the electrical service, it will be inspected and any issues found will be noted in the inspection report.
Decks are a wonderful place to relax and entertain, but they can also be dangerous if not properly constructed. From 2003 to 2007 there were 20,200 injuries from structural failure of decks, porches, railing or stairs with 30 deaths.
Decks will be thoroughly inspected to be sure they are safe for you and your family to enjoy.
Your HVAC system is an important part of your home. We recommend having it serviced annually by a certified HVAC Specialist to help it maintain peak performance, even after you your initial home inspection.
Tip: Replace the air filter EVERY MONTH for better performance and longer life of HVAC equipment, regardless of packaging recommendations of filter.
Your roof protects your home from the elements, it also adds character to your home. It will be thoroughly inspected from both inside the attic and outside for any signs of leaks, deterioration or damage.
Fireplaces and wood burning stoves can be wonderful to have in a home, but they need to be properly maintained. According to the U.S Fire Administration, chimney fires and flue fires are the 2nd on the list of residential fires (electrical is number one). Please have a qualified chimney sweep, clean and inspect them prior to use each year.
