Inspection Services
Sellers Can Speed Up
Their Home Inspection
Sellers can speed their home
inspection by following these
suggestions. The inspection will
go smoother,
with fewer
concerns to delay closing.
1. Confirm that water, electric and
gas service are on, with gas pilot
lights burning.
2. Ensure pets won’t hinder the
inspection. Ideally, they should be
removed from premises or
secured outside. Tell your agent
about any pets at home.
3. Replace burned out bulbs to
avoid a “Light is inoperable” report
that may suggest an electrical
problem.
4. Test smoke and carbon
monoxide detectors, and replace
dead batteries.
5. Clean or replace dirty HVAC air
filters. They should fit securely.
6. Remove stored items, debris
and wood from foundation. These
may be cited as “conducive
conditions” for termites.
7. Remove items blocking access
to HVAC equipment, electric
service panels, water heaters,
attics and crawl spaces.
8. Unlock areas the inspector must
access - attic doors or hatches,
electric service panels, closets,
fence gates and crawl spaces.
9. Trim tree limbs to 10' from the
roof and shrubs from the house to
allow access.
10. Attend to broken or missing
items like doorknobs, locks and
latches; windowpanes, screens
and locks; gutters, downspouts
and chimney caps.
Checking these areas before
your home inspection is an
investment in selling your
property. Your real estate
agent will thank you!
All Home Inspection will conduct a thorough
inspection of your home

As a NACHI-certified professional home inspector, I have
the knowledge and expertise to provide you with a
thorough and professional, non-intrusive, visual
inspection of your home, from roof to foundation.  

Outside the home, I will check the exterior walls, roof,
driveway, deck, etc., then I will 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. (love the crawl space)

Here are some of the  items I'll be looking at during the
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
Garages, Carports, Workshops or other external buildings
Surface drainage
Windows & doors
Insulation
Gutters & down spouts
Decks
Sump pumps

We invite you to come along and be a part of the inspect
of your home, and you are free to ask questions at any
time during your home inspection.
