Be careful unplugging your oven!

 

 

This small vertical crack(center) just saved you 2 grand in replacing the gas furnace. Seller has been bound by contract(if signed) to replace it or you can walk away.

People Do The Craziest Things(new Construction)! 

That Is A Lot Of Water Under A New High End Home.

 

Electrical Engineering At Its Finest!

 

Did You Know Squirrels Eat Lead Plumbing Vent Boots!

 

I Will Remove The Insulation To Check Under All Drains!

 

Sealant Does Not Work Well In Place Of Metal Flashing.

 

All the White Stuff (that hasn't deteriorated) Is Asbestos Insulation. This Can Be Costly To Remove & Is Not Good To Have Under Your Home Because It Continues To Deteriorate Into Powder Form.

 

Older Drum Sytle Trap has No Bottom-Galvanized Drains Will Close Up Over Time!

 

 

1 year old home.

Have Of The Carbon Monoxide From Gas Water Heater May Go Up The Flue Or Just Into The Hallway!

 

 

Now That's A Crack!

 

 

Condensation Drain Never Piped To The Exterior Of Crawlspace!

 

 

This Is Not A Rubber Membrane--Just Tar Paper.

 

 

New Home With No Step Flashing Installed(Just This Area).

Active Leak From New Water heater Installed Several Months Ago.

 

Gas Vent Gets Extremely Hot And Should Not Have Insulation Installed Around It And Yet I See It On Every Other Inspection. This Is A Fire Hazard!

 

Notice The Concrete Slab.

 

Over View Of Previous Picture--And Yes All These Items Had To Be Moved--Crazy Seller!

 

 

Not Viewable From Ground Or Attic!

 

What A Mess!

 

A thorough Inspection pays for itself.

 

Does Your Older Home Still Have The Ancient Knob And Tube Wire Being Used? This Was A Home That Was Said To Have All The Electrical Upgraded--They Must Have Forgot This Section!

 

Home Buyers: The home inspection is a valuable tool, you most likely have already made an offer on the home, why not get what you're paying for. An appraisal is not a guarantee of what you're home is worth or how safe it is.
