Question 1

Can I join you during the inspection?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! I encourage you to join me during the inspection. Walking through the property together lets me explain important details about your home. You can ask questions, share concerns, and see firsthand what I’m inspecting.

Question 2

What should I read before and after the inspection?

Accepted Answer

To make the most of your inspection, review these resources:

• Standards of Practice (https://www.nachi.org/sop)to understand what’s covered.
 • Code of Ethics (https://www.nachi.org/code_of_ethics)to learn the professional standards I follow.
 • The inspection agreement outlining the scope of work.
 • The full inspection report, not just the summary.
 • The home maintenance book, which includes tips for repairs and seasonal checklists.

Question 3

What is the inspector's promise?

Accepted Answer

If you choose me as your inspector, I promise to provide my best effort. Inspections rely heavily on the inspector’s dedication, and I take pride in delivering a thorough and professional service to every client.

Question 4

What is the home inspector's responsibility?

Accepted Answer

A home inspector evaluates the property’s condition on the day of the inspection. The report is based on visible observations and does not predict future problems or include warranties. While I identify material defects and safety concerns, ongoing maintenance is the homeowner’s responsibility.
