Home Inspection:

A home inspection is a thorough examination of a property’s condition, typically performed before a real estate transaction. It covers areas such as the structure, plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, appliances, and more.

A home inspection helps buyers and sellers understand the condition of a property. It can uncover potential issues that may need attention, allowing for informed decisions and negotiations.

Home inspections are usually carried out by certified home inspectors who have training and expertise in evaluating residential properties.

A home inspection report details the inspector’s findings, including any defects, safety concerns, and recommended repairs or maintenance tasks. It may also include photos and descriptions of issues.

  • Appliances Inspections
  • Insulation Inspections
  • Electrical Inspections
  • Plumbing Inspections
  • HVAC Inspections
  • Roofing Structure Inspections

The duration of a home inspection varies depending on the size and complexity of the property. On average, inspections can take several hours to complete.

Radon Testing:

Radon is a radioactive gas that can seep into homes through the ground. It is odorless, colorless, and tasteless, making it difficult to detect without testing.

Radon exposure is a significant health risk, as prolonged exposure can lead to lung cancer. Testing for radon helps identify if elevated levels are present in a home, allowing for mitigation if necessary.

Radon testing is recommended during the home inspection process, especially in areas known for radon prevalence. It’s crucial to test for radon before finalizing a real estate transaction.

Radon testing can be done using short-term or long-term testing kits. Short-term tests typically last 2-7 days, while long-term tests can extend for several months to get a more accurate average radon level.

If radon levels are above the recommended limit (typically 4 picocuries per liter), mitigation measures are advised. Radon mitigation systems can be installed to reduce radon levels and minimize health risks.

Radon can cause the following symptoms: 

    • Wheezing or coughing
    • Chest pain
    • Shortness of breath
    • Lung cancer
