What is Inspected
I conduct a thorough inspection of your home, inside and out.
As an InterNACHI-certified professional home inspector, I have the knowledge and expertise to provide you with a thorough and professional, non-intrusive, visual inspection of your home, from roof to foundation.
Outside the home, I will check the exterior walls, roof, driveway, deck, etc., then I will move inside to examine the walls, ceilings, floors, doors, and windows. The heating, air-conditioning, plumbing, and electrical systems will all be examined to ensure that they function as intended. Bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms receive a thorough check, along with the attic and basement or crawl space.
Some of the many items I'll be looking at during your home inspection:
- Foundation and support structure
- Fireplaces
- Roof systems
- Attics
- Basement / accessible crawl spaces
- Safety controls
- Water heater
- Ventilation
- Electrical capacity & components
- Structural integrity
- Steps and stairs
- Heating system
- Central air conditioning system
- Walks and driveways
- Built-in appliances
- Plumbing system & fixtures
- Garages, carports
- Surface drainage
- Windows & doors
- Insulation
- Gutters & downspouts
- Decks
- Sump pumps
I invite you to come along and watch as I inspect your home, and you are free to ask questions at any time during your home inspection.
A note about mold
Standard home inspections do not include mold testing. If your home has a leak history, water stains, or a musty smell, ask about a separate NYS-licensed mold assessment — I hold New York State Mold Assessment Contractor License #26-6ASUE-SHMO and can test and document mold conditions for you.
