Category: Peace of Mind Home Inspection

 

Portland homeowners may think of a home inspection as something that is done before the sale or purchase of a home. However, the truth is that this is not the only time you should have your home inspected. Regular maintenance or peace-of-mind home inspections are an important part of maintaining your Portland home.

What Is A Peace-Of-Mind Home Inspection?

In addition to pre-sale and pre-purchase home inspections, Check It Out Home Inspection offers what we call peace-of-mind home inspections. There are many systems and parts of your home that need to be maintained throughout the year, including but not limited to your electrical systems, plumbing, roof, home structure, interior, exterior, and more. Portland homeowners would be easily overwhelmed if they had to rely on their own estimation of the condition of every part of their home. With Check It Out Home Inspection’s peace-of-mind home inspections, Portland homeowners can ease their worries about ongoing or impending house issues.

How Often Should I Get A Peace-Of-Mind Home Inspection?

Generally speaking, Portland homeowners want to have a home inspection done every 5 years. However, if you have a crawl space in your Portland home you may want to consider having that checked professionally more often — every 2 to 3 years. If you’re curious about the details covered by Check It Out Home Inspection’s peace-of-mind home inspections, have a look at our sample report.

Doubtless, many Portland homeowners think of an official home inspection as something that usually happens before the purchase of a home. However, Check It Out Home Inspection also provides peace-of-mind inspections to Portland homeowners as well. These are also known as home maintenance inspections.

Why Opt For A Peace-Of-Mind Home Inspection?

Your Portland home requires maintenance from the roof to the basement, and a peace-of-mind home inspection will help you to know just which parts of your home need maintenance the most. A peace-of-mind home inspection will ease your worries about ongoing or impending house issues that could lead to costly repairs down the road if not handled soon. Additionally, peace-of-mind home inspections can help you plan ahead by knowing the typical life expectancy of the roof and HVAC. After a peace-of-mind home inspection, Portland homeowners know what to expect and can plan accordingly.

Portland Homeowners Will Receive an Easy-To-Read Report On Their Home’s Condition Post-Inspection

Check It Out Home Inspection describes the condition of homes in Portland in an easy-to-read report.
