I can't believe this heat pump is still working! The coils are literally falling apart. Good thing they decided to do a home inspection!

During an inspection yesterday I found this interesting critter. About 12 inches long! Never seen one before. Any ideas on what it is?

Discoloration is rarely a good sign!

Last week, we asked you to dust the snow and ice off your outside vents. Did you? Did you notice if your vents were white or discoloured?

If you see this discolouration on your venting, please notify us or your local plumber/gasfitter immediately. Such discolouration raises several red flags, and a gas issue could be at fault for overheating. This poses a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning in the home and increases the risk of a house fire.

If you peep over the fence and notice your neighbour's vents discoloured... be a good neighbour and let them know!

Unsafe pulldown attic stairs are a common occurrence. Not only is the wood split, but since the wood pieces do not touch when open, incredible stress is put on these joints when climbing. Homeowners often don't give these and other dangers a second thought!

And all this time I thought it was a sump pump! 😁

Hmm, so what do you think is behind this panel in the master closet?

Nice find today! I guess this fellow was trying to warm himself in the outdoor main electrical panel! Fried Snake!

I won a major award! (No "trophy" to show off, though.) Thanks to all who have entrusted me to inspecting their home in 2018! 2019 is starting off great!

Indoor air can be more polluted than the air outside. As a result, many homeowners have made improving indoor air quality at home a top priority.

Enjoyed providing lunch to Weichert Realtors on Blue Ridge Rd. yesterday for their Lunch and Learn with the NCDOT! Great discussion on home Inspections as well!
