Why home inspections are important.

Homeowners do not and should not take dead front covers ⚡️ (electrical panels) apart.

Double neutral wires in one lug. You can’t see it unless you take the electrical panel apart, there is no way of knowing until a short or fire starts.

When wires heat and cool, they expand and contract.

If two wires are in the same lug (screw), that can potentially loosen the wire creating a hazard.

Saturday tip.

Once in a while, you should get on your roof 🛖.

This is a good time to remove the moss that builds up on your roof due to the lack of sun ⛅️ in certain areas.

Moss contains moisture 💧and when it’s cool or rainy 🌧️, the moss turns into a sponge and can cause moisture to get into the roof decking where wood rot and mold can grow.

Another reason to get a home inspection, even on a new construction home 🏡.

Why home inspections are important.

This is why having proper gutters with downspouts that divert water 💧 away from the home 🏡 is important.

The water from this roof collects in the gutter and pours onto the soil next to the home creating two issues.

The water 💦 has now eroded the soil causing a negative grade that pools the water next to the foundation.

The eroded soil has also caused the a/c condenser pad to sink ⬇️ tipping the condenser and making the level dip towards the home. This will decrease the efficiency of the air conditioner.

The simple fix is to add downspouts that draw the water away from the home.

Why home inspections are important.

Most builders give a 1 year warranty on the home.

During this warranty inspection, the homeowner noticed that the cable was not working in the living room.

Removing the faceplate, the cable was not spliced and ready.

This was a small item found in this home but one more mystery solved.

Saturday tip.

Once in a while, you should get on your roof.

The rubber flashing boots eventually crack or sink into the pipe due to constant exposure to the weather 🌞.

Now this is a new construction home and the boot should not look 😳 like that already.

Water 💦 can accumulate around the pipe and possibly get into the attic.

Saturday tip.

It’s bbq weather and o love to bbq 🍗

But, use your bbq away from any structure 🏠trees 🌳, and overhangs as that heat doesn’t just stay on the grill.

This keeps you safe and can prevent damage 🔥 to your home, especially if it’s vinyl siding.

The value of infrared.

My client wanted to make sure the floor heaters 🔥worked properly and there weren’t any leaks 💦.

I didn’t have to feel the floor for heat as the infrared camera 📷 picked up the heat signatures right away.

And no leaks were found.

Here is something you don’t inspect everyday.

This is a mortuary that is permitted to be converted into a single family home 😳.

Inspecting this place for two hours 🕰️ by myself was very interesting.

The chandelier lights 💡looked like they flickered, but it must be the older wiring ⚡️.

And I felt like I was being watched 👀. Weird. Oh well, off to the next inspection.

Why should you get a home inspection on a newly constructed home 🏡?

This leak 💦 to the master bathroom sink was obvious even without the infrared camera.

New homes are not perfect and getting the inspection can find defects that if undetected, could cause a lot of damage in the future,

A small fix that can possibly save money 💵 in the long run.
