What to Look for in Summer Home Inspections

Your home is a sacred place because it gives you shelter and comfortable living. Keeping up with maintenance and home inspection for your home is essential to making sure that you home is not costing you an incredible amount of money to keep it running.

Here are is a checklist of summer home inspections:

  • Smoke Alarms – When summer arrives, it’s recommended that you make sure your smoke alarms are working properly with full battery power. Check your carbon monoxide detectors as well.
  • Mold and Mildew – Inspect your basement and attic for possible mold or mildew. As the weather changes, humidity rises, mold and mildew can be a big issue, especially in your home and for your health.
  • Windows – washing your windows seems like a mindless chore, but it can be very important when detecting corrosion, mold, and mildew.
  • Plumbing and Electrical Systems – No matter what time of year it is, checking your plumbing and electrical systems is very important for your home’s condition. You never want to avoid checkups because it can cause a variety of problems down the road.
