Good Morning!! Good Morning!!!!! Goooood Morning!!!! We made it!! It's Fearful Friday!!

This one is not the kind that makes you jump, it is the kind that makes you shake your head.

This house is not even a year old and Bruce found this under a window during a routine look at the exterior. Watch the video and count how many things went wrong in one tiny spot.

New does not mean nothing was missed. Crews are moving fast, more than one house on the street is going up at the same time, project managers change mid job, and every trade figures the other guy already handled it. Somewhere in there "that is just how we do it" becomes the plan.

Get it inspected. Before drywall goes up if you can, and again before that eleven month warranty runs out. Either you get peace of mind, or you get a list of exactly what needs fixed while someone is still on the hook to fix it.

We are grateful for you.

Myth. A brand new home does not need a property inspection.

Fact. New construction gets missed just as often as older homes, sometimes more. Contractors are human, subcontractors change mid build, and a tight schedule means shortcuts happen. We have found double tapped breakers, missing insulation, and SO MUCH MORE in homes that were only weeks old.

A property inspection on new construction is not about distrust, it is about making sure everything was actually finished the way it was supposed to be before you move your family in.

If you are closing on a new build soon, get it inspected before the final walkthrough. It is worth the peace of mind.

We are grateful for you.

Realtors, here's one that saves you a phone call you don't want to get after closing.

A pre listing property inspection catches the surprises before your buyer's inspector does. Instead of scrambling to renegotiate repairs mid contract, your seller walks in already knowing what's there and can price it, disclose it, or fix it on their own terms.

We've watched deals slow down over issues a pre listing inspection would have caught weeks earlier. It's one extra step that protects your timeline and your seller's leverage.

If you've got a listing coming up that could use a second set of eyes before it hits the market, we're right here in Middle Tennessee.

We are grateful for you.

🏆 Not all inspections are equal, because not all inspectors are.

The Certified Master Inspector designation is the highest professional credential in the inspection industry, and it cannot be bought. It is earned through a minimum of 1,000 inspections and hours of advanced training, years in the field, and board certification under the industry's toughest code of ethics.

Only a small fraction of inspectors in the country will ever hold it. Our own Bruce Quinn, CMI, has held it since 2021.

For buyers of significant homes, estates, lakefront properties, and luxury builds across Middle Tennessee, the inspection is not a formality. It is the moment you learn exactly what you are acquiring. Complex systems, guest quarters, pools, smart integration, acreage. Properties like these deserve mastery, discretion, and a team led by one of the few.

That is what we bring to every door we walk through. 🤝

We are grateful for you. 🙏

🔍 Defect Day: What is a double tapped breaker, and why does it matter?

Open an electrical panel and you might spot two wires crammed under a single breaker screw that was built to hold one. 😬 It looks harmless. It is not.

That connection can loosen over time, and a loose connection in a panel means heat. Heat in a panel is how electrical fires start. It is one of the most common defects we find, and one of the most misunderstood, because the lights still work fine right up until they do not.

Here is the good news. Most of the time it is a straightforward fix for a licensed electrician, either splitting the wires onto separate breakers or installing the right kind of breaker rated for two conductors. Cheap to correct now. Expensive and dangerous to ignore.

If you are buying a property in Gallatin or anywhere across Middle Tennessee, this is exactly the kind of hidden issue a thorough property inspection catches before it becomes your problem.

Agents and homeowners, quick one for you: have you ever opened your own panel and had no idea what you were looking at? You are not alone. 👇

We are grateful for you. 🙏

Good Morning!! Good Morning!!!!! Gooooood Morning!!!! We made it!!! It's "Fearful Friday"!!! That special time of the week when your humble yet lovable inspectors share the things we've seen that leave us shaking our heads...or shaking in our boots. This week? Well...let's just say I will never look at April the same way again. 🗓️
"Some days are better than others. And today was one of those OTHERS."

We pull up to the property. Winterized. Signs on everything. Now listen...winterized properties are not unusual. What IS unusual is when a property gets winterized in April. In Tennessee. In spring. 🤔

Why would you winterize a property in April.

Who does that.

WHY.

I kept asking myself that the whole walkthrough. Kitchen. Bathrooms. Everything taped off and tagged. And then I got to the crawl space. 👇

Holes in the v***r barrier. Then more holes in the v***r barrier. And I just keep asking myself why would they winterize in April...

And then I pan over to the drain line.

There is a break in the PVC pipe hanging from the joists. Just sitting there. Open. And everything that was supposed to travel through that pipe has instead been traveling directly onto the v***r barrier below it. For who knows how long.

Yes. That is p**p.
Yes. That is paper.
Yes. THAT is why they winterized in April. 😳💀

Look. I have been in a lot of crawl spaces. I have seen a lot of things under a lot of houses. But there is something about the moment it all clicks. The April winterization. The holes in the barrier. The broken drain line just hanging there like it has absolutely nothing to answer for. It all makes sense and absolutely no sense at the same time.

Here is what matters beyond the moment. A broken drain line in a crawl space is not just a mess. Raw sewage in an enclosed crawl space produces methane gas and bacterial contamination that does not simply dry out and go away. That v***r barrier has to come out completely. The space requires professional remediation. The plumbing has to be fully repaired and tested. And everything that was living on that barrier needs to be gone before anyone sleeps above it. This is not a patch job situation. 🔧

This is why we go in. Every crawl space. Every inspection. No matter what surprises April decided to leave behind. 🙏

Watch video one first. Then video two. It will all make sense.

That's it for this week!! Thanks for tuning in to "Fearful Friday"!! See you next week!!!

That door that sticks every summer? 🚪
Yeah. We need to talk about that.

Most people chalk it up to humidity. Wood swells in the summer, shrinks in the winter, no big deal. And sometimes that is true. But here is what a Certified Master Inspector is actually doing when he opens and closes every door and window in a house.
He is reading the building.
A door that drags at the top on one side. A window that used to open easy and now fights you. A deadbolt that no longer lines up with the strike plate. A gap at the corner of a door frame that was not there before. These are not maintenance issues. These are the building telling you something is happening underneath it. And if you know how to listen, it tells you exactly where to look next.
InterNACHI Standards of Practice require every inspector to report observed indications of possible foundation movement. Out of square door frames are explicitly on that list. Not because a sticking door is the problem. Because a sticking door is the symptom. 🔍
Here is what happens. When a foundation shifts, the framing above it moves with it. The house goes out of square. And the first place you feel it is in the doors and windows because they are the most sensitive moving parts in the structure. A door that used to swing freely and now catches at the corner is telling you the opening it lives in has changed shape. That does not happen by itself.
Now. Does a sticking door always mean a foundation problem? No. Humidity is real. Settlement happens in every house. Some movement is completely normal over time. What a trained eye is looking for is the pattern. One sticking door in a humid summer is probably nothing. Three doors sticking on the same side of the house, a diagonal crack above a window frame, and a floor that feels slightly off when you walk it — that is a conversation worth having with a structural engineer before you sign anything. 🏠

The door is not the story. The door is the first sentence of the story. A Certified Master Inspector reads the whole thing.
What has a door or window ever told YOU about a house? Drop it in the comments. 👇

We are grateful for you.

🌟 Another 5 star review just hit the inbox and I had to share this one.
Matt had us out for a property inspection this week and here is what he said:
"Incredible level of thoroughness. Great insights, documentation, and education. Appreciate the write up so much!"
That word education is the one that gets me. Anybody can hand you a checklist. Our job is to walk you through your property so you actually understand what you own, what needs attention now, and what can wait. When a client walks away feeling educated, we did our job right. 🏠✅
We do not take a single one of these reviews for granted. Every client who trusts us with their property inspection is a blessing, and we are extremely thankful for the opportunity to serve our neighbors across Middle Tennessee, Chattanooga, and Knoxville the right way!
Thank you Matt for trusting Absolute Inspectors. 🙏
We are grateful for you.
