Residential Inspection Services for SW Lower Michigan
Health and Safety to everyone living within the home is of the utmost importance and therefore, we put a strong emphasis on them when we inspect homes. For example, proper clearance of combustible materials to a fireplace or wood burner is carefully checked and recorded. Electrical wiring is thoroughly inspected for proper installation since many home fires have started from faulty electrical wiring. Similarly, proper staircase construction including solid treads, stringers, and handrails are important. We also test smoke detectors for proper operation. These are just a few of the systems which we inspect and test in every home, some may seem minor but all are integrally important.
SCOPE (Safety Issues)
Yes, that is a dead rat (gross!) inside the main electrical panel shown in the photo on left. Photo on right shows frayed asbestos around heating ductwork inside the home which could cause harm to the occupants of the home (Note: Asbestos is a known carcinogen).
