Home Inspection
Process
Our home inspection process is performed by a professional, certified, licensed,
insured
home inspector with the
tools and experience to do it right. Selman Home inspection guarantees a
complete and thorough home inspection. Our
home inspection
process covers over 500
individual items.
What To Expect From Our Home Inspection Process
After the inspection is scheduled, our inspector will arrive cleanly
dressed, in a professional vehicle prepared to begin the home inspection
process. We will be on time and ready to
answer any remaining questions you may have. Next, the inspector will
provide you with a copy of the
Pre-Inspection Agreement
to ensure you understand our home inspection process and a copy of your
Free 100
Day Limited Warranty. Then the technical portion of the
home
inspection process
begins.
Our
home inspection process utilizes a "three pass" methodology that ensures
our inspector doesn't
miss anything. The inspector will make three passes around the exterior
looking for and recording different items with each pass. Then, the roof
covering is inspected for proper installation, age, debris and
estimated remaining life. Next, we
inspect the attic and the crawl spaces for structure, insulation,
electrical and other items. Finally, the inspector will
make three passes through the interior of the residence, again
inspecting different items with each pass.
Once the technical review portion of the home inspection process is complete, the inspector will
prepare the home inspection report for delivery. If you are present
during the home inspection process, the
inspector will review the report with you to verbally clarify anything
that you have questions about and may also offer suggestions about
dealing with any negative findings. When needed, the inspector will
recommend specialist for specific needs or
property deficiencies.
Does A Home Inspection "Pass" or "Fail"?
Keep in mind that no home is perfect, not even a brand new house. Our
inspectors are trained professionals in the home inspection
process and evaluate each property against
the
Texas Standards of Practice and today's local
building codes. We are not code enforcement and an
inspection is not a pass or fail report. It is an
evaluation of the property condition at the time of the report which
simply identifies deficiencies. Report findings are useful in the buying
and selling decisions and for understanding what action, if any, should be taken once
a property is purchased.
