Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Are you a licensed HVAC technician?
No. While we note visible issues such as rust, leaks or unusual noises we recommend hiring a certified HVAC technician for repairs or diagnostics.
Q2: Can you inspect electrical wiring or panels?
We look for visible safety concerns like exposed wires or scorch marks but do not perform in-depth electrical testing. A licensed electrician should handle system evaluations.
Q3: Do you fix plumbing issues during inspections?
We document visible concerns such as leaks water stains or drainage problems. All plumbing repairs must be handled by a licensed plumber.
Q4: Will you confirm if the roof needs replacement?
We flag signs of visible wear like missing shingles or sagging but always recommend a roofer for structural assessment and lifespan estimates.
Q5: Can you certify that appliances are safe to use?
We may confirm whether basic functions work for example if a stove turns on but we do not test for safety. Please contact an appliance technician for certification or repair.
Q6: Are you qualified to assess foundation cracks?
We can document photograph and measure cracks but defer to a structural engineer for professional evaluation and recommendations.
Q7: Do you check for mold or asbestos?
We flag any visible concerns like mold growth or damaged insulation but we do not conduct environmental testing. A certified specialist is required for sampling and remediation.
Q8: Can you approve or inspect a tenant’s DIY repairs?
No. We can note visible modifications but a licensed contractor should review any work for code compliance and safety.

We provide general notes on severity such as minor leak versus major issue but we do not quote prices. Contractors should be consulted for accurate estimates.
