Home Inspections for Buyers - What's Inspected

Know the details

Home Inspections for Buyers: What is inspected is determined by the Massachusetts Standards of Practice.  Keep in mind only that which is visible and accessible at the time of the inspection can be inspected  (266 CMR 6.00).  If we can reach it, we'll inspect it.  But, if there's snow of the roof, the electric panel is blocked, the attic is sealed shut, it just can't be inspected.  In any event, here's what we do:


  • EXTERIOR INSPECTION:  Roof, siding, windows, doors, driveway, walks, walls, decks, patios, grading, drainage, 
  • SYSTEM INSPECTION:  plumbing: supply lines, faucets, water heaters, interior drain lines.  Electrical panel, subpanels, breakers, service ground.  HVAC furnace/boiler, air compressors, heat pumps, air handlers, thermostats, ventilation recovery systems, etc..   
  • APPLIANCE INSPECTION: Cook top, oven, dishwasher, built-in microwave, trash compactor, wine cooler, refrigerator, built-in coffee maker, garbage disposal, keg-erator, wine cooler, etc..  
  • FOUNDATION INSPECTION: concrete, field and cut stone, brick, masonry block, insulated block units, etc.    
  • STRUCTURAL INSPECTION: floor joists, wall assemblies, subflooring, carrying beam, support columns, stairs, weight bearing walls, attic framing, etc..
  • INTERIOR INSPECTION: Doors, windows, floors, walls, ceilings, closets, etc..
  • AND THAT'S JUST THE START OF IT:  Visit the State Standards for a full itemization, along with exclusions and limitations. 


What to Expect

  • Your Home Inspector will take between two and three hours on site to complete a comprehensive Home Inspections for Buyers.  
  • With larger estates, distressed homes, apartment  buildings, we bring along a team of inspectors to see everything is covered within a similar timeframe.
  • If you can't be at the inspection?  Don't worry.  You can use our Live Inspection Link to follow us through the property.  Just let us know and we'll get you the link. 
  • PLEASE, do not schedule contractors, designers, architects or other trades people to be at the inspection.  Our work specific to gathering the information you need.  Folks trying to do different tasks, turning things on and off, opening and closing doors, etc., derails the process we need to assure you the  most comprehensive inspection. 
  • After the inspection, we what few other do.  We review all data, conduct research, consult manufacturers, and have everything reviewed BEFORE we send you the report.  This assures you get the accuracy you need.  
  • The report is usually emailed to you by the end of the following day.
