Why Should You Get a Home Inspection?

Whether you are buying a home or simply mainaining your current home, having a home inspection done by a professional inspector can be very valuable. It can save you time and money on costly repairs and give you the peace of mind in knowing all major systems are operating smoothly.

The inspector will provide you with a detailed home inspection report of the current condition of the home as well as maintenance recommendations. The report you'll receive is the industry leader! It combines the best of the narrative and checklist styles to clearly communicate our findings. We prioritize our findings based on their importance and overall costs to repair or replace and offer summary statements on each section of the home. To accommodate your time concerns, we furnish a complete computer generated report on-site the same day.

Home inspections have become a standard practice all across the country. Here at Dexaco Home Inspections we service all of greater Orlando including Clermont and The Villages in the northwest on through Winter Garden and Ocoee and into the College Park/Winter Park areas of Central Orlando. Oviedo serves as our eastern service boundary. Apopka, Mount Dora, Altamonte, Maitland and Sanford to the north, Kissimmee and the Lake Nona area to the south are also serviced by Dexaco Home Inspections.

All home inspections are not the same! A Dexaco Home Inspection will identify the problems, offer solutions, and give cost estimates for repair and replacements to your home. It is a visual examination and analysis of the physical structure and mechanical components. All of our home inspection services are conducted according to the stringent Standards of Practice of the American Society of Home Inspectors. A typical Orlando home inspection includes examinations of your foundation, structure, roof structure, HVAC equipment, plumbing and electrical systems, built-in appliances, and exterior stucco where applicable. The purpose of the inspection is to insure the construction is sound and all major systems are working properly or if they are in need of repair and meet applicable codes.

It is to the home buyer/owners benefit to be present at the time of the inspection. The inspectors job is not just to inspect the property, but also to educate the potential buyer/owner of the condition of the property, and this can be better achieved if you are present at the time of the inspection. You should feel free to ask the inspector any questions you may have during the inspection process. The inspector will point out problems and explain them to you. The inspector will also show you the good points of the house as well. Plus, we will explain what routine maintenance is needed to keep the house in top condition. This will help you to get the most benefit from the inspection and gain the most understanding of the systems that make up your home, and how to maintain them.

All homes have problems. The only question is, how serious are these problems? Our professional inspectors will be able to explain to you the most serious problems and how to correct them. We will also inform you of possible future problems and what to do to prevent them. This will help you in the negotiating process and in your future maintenance plans.
