🛠️ Inspection Find of the Week

Despite the name… duct tape isn’t actually designed for ductwork. 😄

Over time, standard duct tape dries out, loses its adhesive, and can peel away from heating and cooling ducts. That can allow conditioned air to escape, reducing your HVAC system’s efficiency and increasing energy costs.

For sealing metal ductwork, foil HVAC tape or mastic duct sealant are the proper materials because they’re made to withstand the temperature changes found in duct systems.

It’s a small detail, but it’s one of those things we keep an eye out for during a home inspection.

Have you ever noticed duct tape being used where it shouldn’t be?

🌳 The answer: False. ❌

Even a few branches touching your roof can:

🏠 Wear down and damage shingles over time
🍂 Trap leaves and moisture against the roof surface
🐿️ Provide an easy pathway for pests to access your home
🌿 Scratch siding, gutters, and roofing materials during windy weather

Trees are a great addition to your property, but keeping branches trimmed back from your roof can help prevent unnecessary damage and extend the life of your roofing materials.

Have you checked the trees around your home lately?

🛠️ MAINTENANCE TIP MONDAY

When was the last time you cleaned your gutters?

Clogged gutters can lead to:

💧 Water damage
🏠 Roof leaks
🧱 Foundation issues
🌿 Damage to landscaping

A little maintenance now can help prevent costly repairs later.

✔ Clean gutters at least twice a year—spring and fall.
✔ Make sure downspouts are clear and directing water away from your home.
✔ Consider gutter guards to reduce debris buildup.

Have you cleaned your gutters this year yet? 👇

✈️ Heading away on vacation this summer?

Here’s a question every homeowner should be able to answer before they leave:

💧 Do you know where your home’s main water shut-off is located?

If a pipe bursts, a fitting fails, or a leak develops while you’re away, knowing how to quickly shut off the water can help limit damage and potentially save thousands of dollars in repairs.

Before your next trip:

✔ Locate the main water shut-off
✔ Make sure it is accessible
✔ Show family members where it is
✔ Verify it operates properly

It only takes a few minutes, but it is one of the most important things every homeowner should know.

Do you know where yours is? 👇

🏠 Never had a home inspection before?

One of the most common questions we receive is, “What should I expect during the inspection?”

A home inspection is a visual assessment of the home’s major systems and components. Our goal is to help you better understand the condition of the property and identify any significant concerns.

Many clients choose to arrive near the end of the inspection for a walkthrough and summary of findings, but attendance is completely optional.

To help us provide the most thorough inspection possible, we ask that clients save most questions until the end of the inspection. This allows us to stay focused and reduces the chance of missing important details.

🛠️ Maintenance Tip Monday

When was the last time you tested your sump pump?

Many homeowners do not think about their sump pump until heavy rain or spring runoff arrives—and by then it may be too late.

A quick test only takes a couple of minutes:

✔ Pour water into the sump pit
✔ Verify the pump activates automatically
✔ Ensure water is discharged outside properly
✔ Check that the discharge pipe is not blocked

This simple maintenance task can help reduce the risk of water damage and basement flooding.

❓ TRUE OR FALSE ❓

A small foundation crack always means a major structural problem.

Answer: False ❌

Not all foundation cracks are cause for concern.

Many small cracks are simply the result of normal concrete shrinkage as the foundation cures and settles over time.

However, larger cracks, cracks that are actively changing, horizontal cracks, or cracks with displacement may indicate a more significant issue and should be evaluated further.

The key is understanding which cracks are normal and which ones deserve closer attention.

We see this more often than you might think.

Cracks patched over, stains painted, damage covered up, or issues made to look smaller than they really are. Sometimes it’s harmless cosmetic work — but sometimes it’s hiding a bigger problem.

That’s why a home inspection matters. A good inspection helps look past the surface so you know what you’re really buying before you commit.

🛠️ Maintenance Tip Monday

One of the easiest things you can do to help protect your home is regularly changing your furnace filter.

A dirty filter can:
✔ Reduce airflow
✔ Make your furnace or AC work harder
✔ Increase energy costs
✔ Affect your indoor air quality

As a general rule, check your filter every month and replace it every 2–3 months (or more often if you have pets).

It only takes a few minutes and can help extend the life of your HVAC system.
