The Inspection




Each and every home inspection we perform adheres to NHI, ASHI and state ethics, methods and standards. Each home inspection is a thorough and methodical examination of the entire home, resulting in a detailed and comprehensive report. Each home is unique and while your inspection will be tailored to your house specifically, the process of a "typical" home inspection includes the following:


	Condition of roof surface Chimney Siding Trim Foundations Sills Basement entrance Window wells Outlets & lighting Ground pitch Garages, decks & porches		Doors Windows & skylights Floors Walls Ceilings Stairway & handrail Fireplace/woodstove Bathroom & all fixtures Kitchen & all fixtures Appliances Electrical outlets			Supply & waste systems Main vent stacks Accessible well equipment Accessible public water feed Washer & dryer connections Laundry tub Hot water heater	Compressor Evaporator unit Service line Condenser drain Electric disconnect Compressor base

				• How long does a home inspection usually take? The length of the inspection depends on each house, but typically it canrun 2 to 4 hours. • Who can attend? Typically, your realtor will attend along with the seller's realtor. You are welcome to bring family or whoever you feel comfortable having there - the decision is yours. • How much advanced notice do you need? While we prefer several days notice, we understand the process and that sometimes last minute urgency is unavoidable. We make every effort to accommodate you on short notice and make it happen. • How and when do I pay? At this time, Baney Home Inspection, LLC can accept cash or personal check, made out to James H. Baney. Payment is due at the conclusion of the inspection. • Who gets copies of the report? We work solely for you and we deliver your report, in either hard or soft copy, to you only - unless you request otherwise. You are the only person who can share this report with others. Please make sure we have your correct email address. • What if I have questions after the inspection? We stand behind our service and our report and are still available to you after the inspection has ended. We can answer your questions, give explanations and clarifications or just hear your feedback. Feel free to reach us via phone, email, voicemail or post at anytime.
