What's Inspected
This is where I excel... I am still young enough and physically fit enough that I venture into attics, onto most roofs, and through areas of the crawl spaces that most other inspectors can't, don't, or have a very hard time doing. I am average in size and near an ideal weight. My over two decades of experience in performing inspections and relating the aspects to the client are simply hard to match.
Average time for my inspections is 3.25 hours but some take quite a bit longer depending on age, conditions, client, questions and any ancillary inspections. Please allow about a 4 hour window for an average size home and realtors let the sellers know this as well.
This is generally what is covered:
1. Roof
2. Exterior
3. Basement, Foundation, Crawlspace & Structure
4. Heating
5. Cooling
6. Plumbing
7. Electrical
8. Fireplace
9. Attic & Ventilation and Insulation
10. Doors, Windows & Interior
11. Kitchen & Laundry appliances (if staying)
