Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make—and a home inspection is your best line of defense. At Parkland Home Inspections, we provide detailed, unbiased assessments that help you make informed decisions and avoid costly surprises.
Here are the top 5 things we focus on during an inspection:
1. Foundation and Structure
The foundation is the backbone of your home. Cracks, shifting, or water intrusion in the foundation or structural components can lead to major repairs. We examine the basement, crawl space, and visible structure for signs of damage, movement, or moisture.
2. Roofing and Attic
Your roof protects the entire home. We inspect for missing shingles, damaged flashing, sagging, or poor ventilation. Inside the attic, we check for signs of water damage, mold, and insulation quality.
3. Electrical Systems
Outdated or faulty wiring can pose serious safety hazards. We test outlets, inspect the electrical panel, and ensure the system meets modern safety standards. We also check for DIY fixes that might lead to problems later.
4. Plumbing and Water Damage
Leaky pipes or slow drains may seem minor but can indicate bigger issues. We look at water heaters, fixtures, visible plumbing, and signs of water damage or mold in walls, ceilings, and under sinks.
5. HVAC and Insulation
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems affect comfort and energy efficiency. We assess the condition of furnaces, air conditioners, and ductwork, and check insulation levels throughout the home.
A thorough inspection can reveal the true condition of a property—and give you peace of mind.
At Parkland Home Inspections, we’re committed to protecting your investment with expert-level care.
