Came across to an electrical panel where all breakers 20 amps and below were AFI breakers. While they will still work it was unnecessary and not cost effective to only use AFI type breakers. It is not recommended to place AFI breakers on circuits where refrigerators will go in the kitchen, bathrooms, garages, unfinished basements, attics, crawl spaces, or outdoors. If you have any questions about the wiring and breakers in your electrical panel Payonk Home Inspections can inspect it for you!

An Eyewash Station and Right to Understand Compliance Center box in a bathroom?? These items must be 100% accessible when they are in need to be used. If you have any concerns about electrical and plumbing safety in your home, Payonk Home Inspections can inspect it for you!

Came across this improper copper coupling connecting a CPVC with just pipe glue and a proper connection to PEX. In this case the CPVC to copper connection will leak at some point since no water hammer is present. A licensed plumber will need to be consulted to resolve this matter. If you have any plumbing concerns Payonk Home Inspections can check it out for you to ensure it is safe and done right.

This is at the bottom of the toilet fill valve near where the hose is connected to the toilet. One of the few reasons the new build was not getting full water pressure - the water pipes were not cleared of obstruction before installing fixtures. If you feel that you are not getting enough water pressure out of any fixture Payonk Home Inspections can test it and find the solution for you!

Single 2x4’s used alone should not be used to support additional beams to hold the stringers in place. The ledger board in between the 2x4’s was cut to let the single 2x4’s get through and only had one nail in which should have at least 2 or more for that piece to ensure the joist stays put. The elbow brackets used at the top of the stringers were the wrong kind and did not have galvanized screws/nails. It is deck season and ALL decks should be inspected annually to ensure they are safe and free of any defects that could cause personal injury. If you have any concerns or would like to make sure your deck is good, give Payonk Home Inspections a text at 336.408.2434!!

Not only do we ensure that items inside and outside of the home are working and in good condition, we check for the safety features on many items. While the stovetop k***s still work, the labeling around the k***s have worn off and pose a risk to injury of a client. If you have any concerns about items posing a safety risk Payonk Home Inspections can inspect it and let you know if something needs to be done about it.

When the window was noticed being taped at the window locks and the upper sash could not latch with the window lock on the bottom sash it was observed that the upper sash was not properly cut to fit while being repaired (you can see the original stiles on both sides of the upper sash being too short). Payonk Home Inspections observes windows to ensure they are properly formatted and can open and close easily for the safety of the resident.

Had a client question me why the built-in LED light bulb kept getting blown inside their ceiling fan for the third time. Checked around and saw this dimmer switch… checked specifications online for the ceiling fan with built-in LED light and it stated that it wasn’t compatible with dimmer switches. Check to ensure all LED/CFL fixtures/bulbs are compatible with a dimmer switch before installing one. Some have a symbol on the case indicating it is/isn’t compatible with dimmer switches.
