Did you know that as an Atlanta Home Inspector I check around 2000 items on each and every home inspection. So many times we are asked to cut our prices, give discounts and other things. The average home inspection takes me 3 to 4 hours to do the job properly, without being rushed. This does not include the time that I spent going over the report with the client or answering any questions they might have. So I thought I would give you an example in a series of some of the things that I check.

When I first arrive I stand back from the house or cross the street and look at the entire home. One of the things I look for is sloping sagging or anything that does not look just right. I also check the other homes in the subdivision to get an idea of age and if the one I am inspecting has been well maintained.

The next thing I begin to look at is the grading and drainage checking to make sure that all drainage is appropriate and not draining towards the house.

I also do a through check of the exterior walls, siding, openings (windows and doors) steps, decks and balconies.
