What is Inspected
The six major areas of concern are:
- SITE
- FOUNDATION
- ROUGH FRAMING/CARPENTRY
- HEATING
- PLUMBING
- ELECTRICAL
In addition we look very carefully at:
- ROOF
- BRICK AND/OR SIDING
- GUTTERS AND DOWNSPOUTS
- DOORS, WINDOWS
We also review and evaluate all the “finish” trades:
- DRYWALL, PLASTER, PAINT
- FINISH MECHANICALS (PLUMBING, HEAT AND ELECTRICAL)
- TRIM CARPENTRY (INTERIOR DOORS, HARDWARE, ECT.)
- CABINETS AND COUNTER TOPS
- TILE WORK & FINISH FLOORS
At no extra charge we look at the appendages and/or any typical “out buildings”:
- GARAGE (ATTACHED OR DETACHED)
- STORAGE SHEDS
- POLE BARNS
- PORCH ENCLOSURES, ETC.
We are conscious of energy and it’s costs, so we are always looking at and for:
- EXTERIOR CAULKING
- INSULATION
- WEATHER STRIPPING
- AIR INFILTRATION
And there is no extra charge to observe the following:
- SEAWALLS
- BOAT HOUSES
- CRAWL SPACES
