Unfinished Repairs Found on Boise Home Inspection

On this home inspection in Boise Idaho, there was a sprinkler leak that flooded the crawl space. All repairs and new ducting was supposed to have been completed. We found no ducting installed and no insulation. Don’t believe what was supposed to be done. Verify with a home inspection.

Client Says Boise Home Inspection Was Well Worth The Money

We were very pleased with the thorough home inspection services we received on the home we are buying.  There were many things that need repairs and it was very good to know all were relatively minor to fix.  We felt we were treated extremely well, listened to and got a good thorough job done.  It was well worth the money to us.

Home Inspection Client in Meridian Idaho Says Thank You

Mr. Strand – Thanks again for your help with the inspection of our new home!

As new home owners my wife and I had a lot of concerns about taking on such a big investment. Going through the detailed inspection with you gave both of us a lot more confidence in our choice of a new home. Additionally, we appreciated your detailed and clear explanations of existing issues with our home and your candid recommendations.

With your help we feel secure in our decision and vastly more prepared to handle any incidental repairs that will be needed prior to moving in.

Thank you so much!

Mold Found in Newer Home in Nampa Idaho

During a home inspection in Nampa Idaho mold was found throughout the crawl space of this 2006 Nampa Home. The crawl space has a sealed ventilation system, which are supposded to be energy effiecient. No crawl space vents are installed on home as traditional crawl spaces are. There is an exhaust fan installed on one end of crawl space and can vent out the side of crawl space or through a pipe out of the roof. With this an inlet air source is needed on the opposite side of crawl space. This allows air to move through the crawl space to vent. With this type of system you can fully seal and insulate the crawl space.

With this home the exhaust fan had gone bad or never worked. Obviously no one noticed the fan not working or didn’t know because it was not properly explained to them at the time of purchase. A few years of no ventilation in the crawl space has caused mold to grow on the under side of the sub-flooring.

Boise Home Inspection Client Stays Great Job

Davin Strand was very professional and helpful with the inspection of our new home.  He arrived on time and spent plenty of time doing a very thorough inspection.  It was helpful to be able to follow him around and find out what needed to be fixed and exactly what it would entail.  It made it easy to triage what needed to be done before closing by the sellers and what were easy fixes for myself as the buyer.  I learned a lot that will help me prepare my home for sale as we will have to sell our current residence.  After the repairs he reinspected the home and verified that everything we had asked for had been done.  His report included a  book with photos of the areas needing repair and  was quite helpful especially since we planned to do some of the minor repairs ourselves.  It will serve as a reminder of exactly what and where the minor things are.  All the information was sent to me the day of the inspection which helped to expedite the process.  The repairs that he found needing to be done were quickly repaired by the sellers and the cost of the inspection was more than paid for by the repairs they had done.  My daughter had recently purchased a home and had another inspection company check it.  Many of the problems were not found at the inspection leading to numerous problems after the sale.    I feel quite confident that all the critical problems were noted with Davin.  Thanks for a great job.

New Drain System Found on Nampa Home Inspection

On a recent home inspection in Nampa Idaho, water was found in the main duct line of the furnace. This obviously was known by someone, because a steel pipe was installed in the duct line to drain the water out. Not only are repairs needed, but with standing water in the duct line, mold can grow and then the spores get blown throughout the home. This is what you would be breathing. Amazing what some people do to there homes.
