The wall flashing was missing kick-out/diverter flashing at the time of the inspection. This condition could allow moisture to penetrate the exterior wall component. A qualified contractor should evaluate, then repair or replace as advised prior to the inspection objection deadline.
Minor cracking was visible on the driveway in areas. Monitoring is the minimum recommendation. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary and according to current standards.
The driveway showed signs of heaving and/or settling in areas. Heaving is often caused by soil that has expanded in volume due to increased moisture content, or by wet soil which has expanded as it became frozen. Settlement is when the soil below a concrete slab is loose, or it can no longer support the weight causing it to sink or crack. This condition could potentially cause a trip hazard.
A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary and according to current standards.
A bulb at an exterior light fixture did not respond to the switch at the time of inspection. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary according to current standards.
Window Well(s) lacked covers and may represent a danger to small children and may trap pests. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
Minor cracking was visible on the walkway(s) in areas. Monitoring is the minimum recommendation. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary and according to current standards.
Signs of repairs were present in the walkway(s) in areas. Recommend asking current homeowner for more information, and if repairs appear to be of poor quality it is recommended to have a qualified contractor evaluate further for any additional repairs necessary.
One or more vent was missing a screen. A damaged vent assembly can allow entry of water, air, or rodents into vent ducts or home. Recommend a qualified contractor to evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
Downspout extensions were dented or damaged in some areas at the time of inspection. This condition can cause a blockage and potential build up of moisture intrusion into the soil next to the foundation walls. This in turn can potentially cause hydro-static pressure against the foundation walls and create adverse results. Recommend further evaluation by a qualified contractor to repair or replace.
The window had peeling paint. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
A fixture or bulb was not responding to switches at the time of inspection. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The oven had excess grease or was dirty at the time of inspection. Excess grease may be a fire hazard. Recommend a qualified contractor evaluate and clean as needed.
An outlet did not provide Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection. Although GFCI protection of circuits may not have been required at the time in which this home was built, safe building practices have improved with the passage of time and building standards have changed to reflect current understanding. The inspector recommends updating the existing electrical circuits to include GFCI protection. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The door would not latch when closed, and may need adjustment at the strike plate to latch properly. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The water temperature was higher than the acceptable range of 120-130 degrees. We recommend adjusting the water heater thermostat.
The secondary drain line was capped, missing or not routed to a drain. If the primary drain line becomes blocked, this condition could cause condensation to not drain properly and possibly damage the unit. The inspector recommends installing a secondary drain or installing an over flow protection device. A qualified contractor should evaluate then repair or replace as advised.
