YOUR
HOME
INSPECTION

A home inspection is an opportunity to check the property inside and out to discover any current or potential problems. Home inspectors visually assess the components and structure of the home and are obligated to identify particular items that are problematic, defective, or not up to code. Inspectors are required to use specific language in their reports which can be considerably detailed. To follow is a list of the ten items we most commonly see on a home inspection report:

  • The panelbox is not labled or labeled incorrectly.

  • There was no GFCI protection installed/functioning on the indicated receptacles. 

  • A shower head was leaking at time of inspection. This could corrode the fixture. 

  • Sealant in and/or around the shower was deteriorated/missing. This could result in moisture intrusion to the surrounding areas. This could also be around the exterior of the winows.

  • The toilet is loose at the base. Leaks could occur. Recommend tightening, resealing, and monitoring.

  • Carbon Monoxide detectors were not observed in the home (detectors were not labeled). If the homeowner does not have them installed, this is a safety hazard as homes with an active gas feed or attached garages are recommended to have them installed. 

  • Additional smoke detectors are recommended in each sleeping area.
