A clean lint screen is one part of caring for a dryer, not proof that the entire exhaust path is clear. Follow the appliance manufacturer's cleaning guidance and have performance concerns evaluated appropriately. Longer drying times should not simply become the new normal, and concealed exhaust sections may require professional attention.

A home inspector may operate accessible heating equipment using its normal controls when conditions permit. The observation helps describe the system at that visit; it does not replace a specialist's service or prove performance under every outdoor condition. Inspection findings and maintenance records each contribute different information.

The cabinet base under a kitchen sink is worth a quick visual check when the space is safely accessible. Look for swelling, a fresh water mark, or belongings that repeatedly feel damp. Note whether the mark appears near a fitting or elsewhere in the cabinet, then keep a dated photo if it changes. Persistent moisture deserves evaluation rather than an assumption about its source.

A ceiling stain is a reason to ask questions during a home inspection, not a diagnosis by itself. Its size, location, nearby fixtures, and whether the surface feels visibly changed all add context to the observation. A photo in the inspection report helps identify exactly which spot needs follow-up. The source may be elsewhere, so avoid assuming the stain tells the full story.

Visual flashing problems often show as streaks, gaps at window corners, or loose flashing edges. From ground level, note discoloration, stains below flashing lines, or visible fasteners that appear corroded.

When assessing a roof from the ground and eaves, scan for missing shingles, irregular flashing lines, and debris buildup in valleys. Note any loose or lifted roofing material and visible flashing gaps around chimneys or vents. Documenting these observations with photos helps track changes over time and gives professionals clear reference points during a follow-up evaluation.
