How to Prepare for a Home Inspection
- Make sure gas, electrical and water utilities are on, lights are functional and all appliances are operational.
- Confirm that electrical panels, water and gas meters and all access openings to attic areas, eave and crawl spaces are accessible.
- If the home owner has aggressive pets, please have them secured before the inspector arrives.
- For safety reasons, inspectors are not allowed to turn on utilities, light pilot lights, power up or plug in appliances.
- Inspectors are not allowed to remove sealed or secured access openings or move stored items placed there by the owner.
- If you have special concerns about your home, be sure to let the inspector know. A great example would be if it recently rained and you saw water in the basement the last time you visited the home. However, your inspection occurred on a beautiful and sunny day and no signs of water were present at that time. You should express this issue as a concern.
