So what's a homeowner to do? 91% of all homeowners surveyed would recommend the purchase of a home inspection.All homes new and old have defects, regardless of the competence and integrity of the builder or the construction supervisor,or service personal that make repairs through the years of home ownership. If this were not the case, the essential imperfection of humanity would be disproved. Some homes have repair lists that are long, while other lists contain only a few items. In new constructed homes in most cases, defects are minor in nature, but serious problems, such as violations of safety requirements, are not uncommon. A home inspector can spend three or more hours searching for construction errors in one home; a municipal inspector cannot. A home inspector can spend an entire workday inspecting just two houses; a municipal inspector cannot.We provide a 11 month warranty inspection at affordable rates.If your new home warranty is still in effect you can have a warranty inspection to provided to building for warranty punch-out list.The home having its normal settlement of the structure to occur by this time,and some of the imperfection start manifesting in a time when the builders warranty is still in effect.

In the long run, a thorough home inspection benefits the builder, as well as the buyer, by reducing the number of Repair callbacks that might occur after the inspector locates Building Defects. It lessens the possibility of injury to occupants, and limits the likelihood of future lawsuits. Builders, in fact, would be well advised to hire a home inspector of their own to provide a final "punchout" list when the construction is completed. Then the buyers' home inspector would be less likely to irritate the supervisor with further disclosures.

- For a new home, ask if radon-resistant construction features were used and if the home has been tested.
- Fix the home if the radon level is 4 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L) or higher.

**Recent medical studies show that mold is one of the most common causes of allergic symptoms and certain types of mold can cause fatal disorders. The presence of mold, fungus and mildew can create a health hazard in a home, and homes should be tested to determine the type of mold growing in a home. Our inspectors can perform swab, air and carpet samples to determine the type of mold and the amount of mold growing in the home. The samples are sent to a laboratory for analysis and the results are generally available in five business days. It is also important to understand why mold is growing in a home. Our inspectors can tell you possible reasons why the home is experiencing a problem with mold growth and what repairs are needed to eliminate mold growth in the home.***
