Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is a home inspection?
A home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house, from the roof to the foundation. A home inspector, therefore, will not pass or fail a house, but rather describe the physical condition and indicate what components and systems may need major repairs or replacement.
Millard Home Inspections performs professional home inspections that exceed the InterNACHI “standards of practice” and the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) “standards of practice”. The inspector will perform a complete and through inspection utilizing the most advanced inspecting equipment. The inspection will take approximately 3 hours. Our thorough home inspection reports will cover the condition of the home’s heating system; central air conditioning system (temperature permitting); interior plumbing and electrical systems; the roof, attic and visible insulation; walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; the foundation, basement and structural components.
Our focus is to ensure proper installation, functionality, safety and if any repairs or replacements need to be made.
What is a Pre-Inspection Agreement?
A Pre-Inspection Agreement is a document that describes the inspection process and payment terms, this document will need to be signed or accepted at the time of inspection by the client paying for the inspection of the property. If you will not be attending the inspection, we ask that the Pre-Inspection Agreement be accepted and signed prior to the date of the inspection. An email of the Pre-Inspection Agreement will be sent to you after scheduling your inspection; Agreement must be accepted and retuned. If needed we can also fax the agreement to be signed and returned prior to the inspection date.
Why do I need a home inspection?
Buying a home could be the largest single investment you will ever make. To minimize unpleasant surprises and unexpected difficulties, you will want to learn as much as you can about the newly constructed or existing house before you buy it. A home inspection may identify the need for major repairs or builder oversight, as well as the need for maintenance to keep it in good shape. After the inspection, you will know more about the house, which will allow you to make decisions with confidence. If you already are a homeowner, a home inspection can identify problems in the making and suggest preventive measures that might help you avoid costly future repairs. If you’re planning to sell your home, a home inspection can give you the opportunity to make repairs that will put the house in better selling condition.
Should I be there during the inspection?
It’s not required, but it is highly recommended. Throughout the inspection, you will be able to ask questions and you will learn about the condition of your home and the best ways to maintain it. Never pass up this opportunity to see your prospective home through the eyes of a professional.
