Wondering what’s included in a standard home inspection from Knoxville Engineered Home Inspections? Here is a quick overview of the services included in your home inspection, and the major systems that I analyze and assess throughout the process.

  • Roof

    The roof is one of the most costly and important structures. We will examine the roof, its structure, shingles/tiles, flashing, gutters, downspouts and more.

  • Exterior

    This includes the exterior walkways and doors, siding, eaves and soffits, fascia, paint, and other such elements of the home’s exterior.

  • HVAC

    I will visually inspect the HVAC systems including ducts, filters, furnaces and air conditioning units.

  • Plumbing

    I  will visually inspect plumbing fixtures for proper function, including tubs, sinks, hoses, showers, water shut-off valves, and irrigation systems, if applicable, and look for leaks and other such flaws.

  • Electrical Systems

    We will visually inspect both interior and exterior electrical systems including service drops, service masts, grounding, outlets, meters, circuit breakers, and other such systems.

  • Appliances

    I will test or examine all major appliances like hot water heaters, dishwashers, ovens, refrigerators, microwaves and more.

  • Doors, Windows & Interior

    I will check doors and windows for proper sealing and drafts, signs of mold or water damage, and more. I will also check the condition of all interior spaces.

  • Foundations, Basements and Crawl Spaces

    I will examine the foundation, crawlspaces and basements to look for signs of things like past water damage, foundation cracking or shifting, and other such potentially expensive issues.

  • Attic, Ventilation & Insulation

    I will examine the attic to ensure it is properly ventilated, check for mold and moisture, assess the level of insulation, and more.
