Things for my home inspection business have been busy. Growth in this economy is very good. I have not seen a downturn in my home inspection company, I am actually up 16% for the year. Today the inspection was a Springfield Ohio home inspection
This home had some cracking in walls and ceilings. They are most likely related to the cut joist in the basement, the deteriorated joist that is no longer supporting at the end and the main beam that had been cut into. All repairable issues.

Busy summer for home inspections, at least for me
It has been a busy summer so far for the home inspections I perform in Central Ohio.
Ohio home inspections overall are down from what I am being told from other home inspectors and real estate agents.
I am up by a few percentages above last year despite there being incentive last year that may have artificially inflated early 2010 home buying.
My client testimonials keep coming in.

Home Inspection of crawl space
As I do my duties as a self employed Ohio home Inspector is get inside crawl spaces. Moisture can be an enemy of any home if it is allowed to collect and get high enough. Inside a recent crawl space I found dryer vents being routed into the crawl space therefore dumping all that moist dryer air in to the crawl space under the home.
As a result of years of this the sill plates and joists had rotted and mold is growing. Be sure to have your home, your new home and your investment properties under go a home inspection. If this property had a home inspection years ago this issue could have been avoided.

Bats in the Attic
Did a home inspection recently in Marysville, Ohio and as I was going though the attic I found a bat hanging at the ridge beam. I am not a wuss at all, however I did not like going underneath the fellow so as to get to the end of the attic space.
Luckily for me it appeared to be sleeping and did not fly about. If it did I would have left the attic really quick.

New Home roofs
Even new homes should be inspected by an independent home inspector. New roofs can have damaged shingles due to tools dropping on them or careless workers. All new homes should have a whole house inspection. Even those being built in Jerome Village.Thursday, November 4, 2010

Dryer Vents
Lately I have been seeing dryer vents that are not routed so as to take the moist air to the exterior. Dryers create huge amounts of moist air and moist air will cause lots of issues for homes, such as rot, deterioration and of course mold.
Make sure your duct is connected and takes all the air to the exterior
This is something that I look for during the Ohio home inspections I do.
