What conditions and components are not evaluated in an inspection?
Inspectors vary significantly in expertise and training; therefore, it is important to know what systems, conditions or components will not be addressed in an inspection. My Service excludes testing and /or evaluation of the following: wood destroying insects; environmental hazards; allergens and /or mold/mildew conditions; and, toxic/hazardous materials (including: radon asbestos, lead, chemical, and other biological contaminants). However, if any conditions are identified which are suggestive in these issues, they will be identified and my Client advised to have an evaluation by a licensed expert (referrals provided). Also, automatic lawn sprinkler and security/alarm systems are not tested as a part of my inspections. In my opinion, these systems and conditions are all specialty areas, which require extensive training and/or licenses for proper evaluation, and should be left to the experts.
