What Do Home Inspectors Look At?


Scheidt is a highly experienced, certified, and insured inspector that evaluates and assesses the overall condition of your home. To accomplish that, we have a list of features we observe. The American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) outlines a list of things home inspectors will observe during an evaluation, including:


  • Foundation: The home's foundation must be structurally sound and free of wear in order for a home to be considered safe. Cracks or water damage will all need to be remedied before a home is safe to sell.
  • Roof: The roof is a home's primary defense from outdoor elements. It's a major selling point and also the most important safety feature in a home.
  • HVAC system: HVAC systems are what's responsible for keeping a home comfortable year-round. Adequate heating and air, as well as proper air filtration, is important for both comfort and safety. Water heaters will also be inspected
  • Plumbing: A major safety and sanitation feature for any property is a functioning plumbing system. Clogs, slow drains, or malfunctioning systems are detrimental for safety.
  • Electrical systems: Electrical systems are a major component of any home. Scheidt inspectors will inspect the electrical panels as well as the wiring throughout the home. Outdated or fault electrical systems are a major fire hazard and will need to be repaired nd re-inspected before a home is safe to sell.
  • Attic/insulation: When buying a house, many buyers will want to know the condition of the home's insulation. Scheidt will inspect insulation as part of the evaluation process.
  • Walls and ceilings: Walls and ceilings are notorious for looking clean on the surfaces while hiding major safety issues. An experienced Scheidt inspector will have the trained eye to make note of any hidden concerns.
  • Floors: Floors are a major indicator of a home's health. They see a lot of use and abuse as a home ages, and their condition can help indicate the condition of the entire home.
  • Windows: While a key component of the aesthetic, windows also have an important insulation function. Most modern windows are filled with argon gas to help aid in insulation. As they age, windows will need to be inspected for their structural condition, but also their argon levels.
  • Doors: One of the most important aspects of any home purchase are the doors. All exterior doors need to have an airtight and watertight seal to keep the outdoor elements from getting in. They also need to have strong frames and good locks as a safety measure against intruders.
