SEWER SCOPE INSPECTION- During a full home inspection, we run the water to uncover possible drainage issues, but that does not tell us the full condition of what is underneath the home line to the city connection. Cracks, leaks and roots can cause issues to the sewer line and we run a full scope with video to the city connector to find any of those potential issues.
LEAD INSPECTION- Lead is known carcinogen and was widely used in older homes. The test can help head off any safety issues before the home is purchased.
ASBESTOS INSPECTION- Asbestos is a known carcinogen and was widely used in the siding, ductwork, pipe insulation, etc. on older homes. In its friable (airborne fibers) state, it can cause a host of health issues. A home inspection will not be able to identify all the places where asbestos may be, so having the additional air tested is crucial when buying an older home.
