Home Inspections by Randall Shirley

Finding a new home can be exhilarating, but nothing’s worse than buying your dream house, moving in, and finding out that there are serious issues. You will receive a detailed, comprehensive report that explains the condition (both positive and negative) of the home’s structural elements, major systems and components. I will answer any questions you may have about your home, during the inspection

process or anytime afterwards, so you can make your purchasing decision with confidence. On the exterior of the home, I will check the walls, roof, driveway, deck, yard slope etc. I will then move inside to examine the walls, ceilings, floors, doors, and windows. The heating, air-conditioning, plumbing, and electrical systems will all be examined to ensure that they function as intended. Bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms receive a thorough check along with the attic and basement or crawl space. Here are some of the many items I’ll be looking at during your home inspection:

• Foundation and support structure
• Fireplaces
• Roof systems
• Basement seepage
• Safety controls
• Water heater
• Ventilation
• Electrical capacity & components
• Structural integrity
• Steps and stairs
• Heating system
• Central air conditioning system
• Walks and driveways
• Built-in appliances
• Plumbing system & fixtures
• Attached garages, carports, workshops
• Surface drainage
• Windows & doors
• Insulation
• Gutters & downspouts
• Decks
• Sump pumps

I invite you to come along and watch as I inspect your home, and you are free to ask questions at any time. For more information please browse the rest of this web site.
