When your home’s systems are in optimal condition, they work together to keep your house comfortable, healthy, and energy-efficient. A regular home maintenance inspection can help identify issues before they become serious so you can keep your home in good shape.

Don’t Ignore Issues

Sometimes when we notice issues in our home, we postpone making repairs. However, small problems can worsen until they require a more costly, immediate repair. There are likely even problems that we don’t know about in our homes.

Because a house experiences wear and tear daily, it’s smart to hire a certified home inspector every couple of years to diagnose any issues early and give you maintenance advice. Home inspectors are unbiased, certified professionals who are trained to find and document issues. After the inspection, they will give you a detailed report on the home’s condition.

What is Included in a Home Maintenance Inspection?

A home maintenance inspection is similar to a home inspection that a buyer requests before closing on their new home. The inspector examines all visible and accessible components, including areas like the roof, foundation, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, deck, garage, attic, basement, insulation, ventilation, and exterior.

The inspection report shows detailed descriptions and photographs of the various components and areas of the home. Problem areas will be highlighted and recommendations given so you can make a plan for maintaining and repairing any areas that need attention.

A Home Maintenance Inspection Can Save You Money

A home maintenance inspection is an investment that helps you proactively take care of your home. Catching a problem early can make a big difference in the amount of damage to your home and the cost of repair. Keep your home in top condition by hiring a home inspector to perform an inspection every 2-3 years or whenever you have any concerns about your property.
