You probably don’t think about the piece of wood sitting between your home and its foundation, but it’s an important part of the structure.

The sill plate helps anchor the house to the foundation. During an inspection, we’re looking for things like wood rot, insect damage, moisture intrusion, and improper connections that could affect its condition.

🔍 It’s another example of why a home inspection goes far beyond what you can see at first glance.

🍂 Fall is just around the corner, is your home ready?

September is a great time to get ahead of seasonal maintenance before cooler temperatures, heavier rain, and more time spent indoors arrive.

A few simple checks now can help catch small issues before they become bigger (and more expensive) problems. 🔎

📌 Save this September checklist and make it part of your fall home routine!

Your water heater or furnace is supposed to send combustion gases safely outside. When something disrupts that airflow, those gases can be pulled back into the home instead.

That’s called backdrafting and it’s one of those issues a home inspector is specifically looking for because it can create a serious safety concern.

A great home inspection doesn’t just identify problems, it gives you the information you need to move forward with confidence. 🏡🔍

Anthony takes the time to thoroughly inspect the home, explain what he finds, and make sure buyers understand what they’re walking into before the keys are handed over.

Because knowing what needs attention now can make all the difference later.

Why homeowners should care:
• Helps protect the roof structure from moisture
• Supports proper attic ventilation
• Can help prevent moisture buildup in the attic
• Damage can provide an entry point for pests

Where we spot it:
🏠 Under roof overhangs
🌬️ Along the eaves
🪵 Around the perimeter of the home
🕷️ Near attic ventilation openings

Inspector Tip:
Keep soffit vents clear of insulation, debris, and nests. Blocked ventilation can contribute to excess heat and moisture in the attic.

Why homeowners should care:
• Can increase heating and cooling costs
• Allows conditioned air to escape
• Can introduce warm, moist air into the attic
• May contribute to condensation and moisture problems

Where we spot it:
🏠 Around recessed lights
🚪 Around attic access openings
🧱 Around plumbing and electrical penetrations
🌬️ Where walls meet ceilings

Inspector Tip:
Proper air sealing at attic bypasses can improve energy efficiency and help prevent moisture from entering the attic.
