Inspected this mix use commercial-residential building last week. 10 residential units and 10 commercial spaces. Interesting building but very cool and unique.
Thanks to the buyers agent - .ec
Agents watch this short video!! You really want to know why you are getting worthless inspections from these new guys coming into the inspection industry!?
Want to know why they are so “cheap”?!
First let me comment - the standards of practice is the “minimum” standard to abide by. This video is a perfect example of people getting their inspection license and being taught you don’t have to and it’s recommended NOT to walk any roof, pitched or flat!! 🤯
So, it’s basically an “observation” of the roof from the ground. And taught to inquire from the seller - the age and history of the roof, and any maintenance its had. Looking for any noticeable damage from the ground.
The only safety issue is if you’re a dumb ass, have no common sense, no training or knowledge of safety procedures - common sense applies here. And are just simply lazy and want to offer the “minimum” in the service you provide.
Now remember it’s the “minimum”!! Doesn’t say you can’t go above and beyond the minimum. 9 times out of 10 these cheap new guys are giving you exactly what they have learned on the computer screen. A basic, generic inspection with absolutely zero substance to it.
Anyways this is more of an informative post so you can understand the difference between a lot of us but specifically me!
The saying “you get what you pay for” applies to this.
This applies to everything in a home inspection, not just roofs. I only used this as an example. But same goes for mechanical, plumbing, electrical, structural, foundation etc…
If you want a thorough inspection by someone with experience and lots of credentials, call me!

Commercial inspection of an office complex in Fort Walton Beach. Inspected the entire building and each suite. Not a building to small or to big that I can’t take on.

Another Dr Horton inspection in Panama City. Not a bad built. Lots of new communities and construction going on in Panama City. Probably my 10th inspection out this was all new construction. Thanks to the buyers agent for referring and trusting me.

To add to the previous post about hardi cladding installation details. Butt joint flashing detail is also a detail that is always missing - 8 times out of 10 the contractor didn’t use it and caulked the joints. The manufacturer recommends using butt joint flashing and not to caulk the butt joints. Mainly for esthetic reasons. Once the caulk fails it’s a good source or path for water/moisture/humidity to get behind the cladding and create or cause unwanted moisture issues. At this home, this issue combined with the cladding being improperly painted had caused water/moisture to get trapped behind the cladding, speeding up the deterioration and damage the lap cladding materials.
Details in the application methods used to install all sidings is very important and should never be overlooked or ignored. This home now needs to be completely resided due to poor installation methods and maintenance.
This is also typically overlooked and or not reported or acknowledged by most home inspectors.
I can only suspect because they don’t want to upset their agent that refers them or kill the deal. That mentality is the wrong approach. That agent still has a buyer. The agent can find them another home and be the inspector that saved the homeowner/client a bunch of money and headache.
