Hiring a professional home inspector before buying real estate is never a wasted cost. Home inspectors focus on a building’s structural elements, while as buyers, we tend to notice the design and finishes.
During an inspection, every nook and cranny of the home is carefully examined. A professional home inspector will visually survey everything from your roof to your foundation. They examine the exterior of the building, including the roof, gutters, wall claddings, stairs and decks. They inspect other exterior aspects as well, such as proper grading, signs of pests and any additional structures on the property.
Once inside, a home inspector will poke through the attic, looking for proper insulation and a sound structure. They inspect for signs of moisture or other potential problems. Systematically, they will work their way through the home, testing every system. They will also inspect the basement for leaks or cracks in the foundation. It’s important to note that inspectors are not allowed to cut open walls or remove flooring
