Report Summary
Report Summary
The summary below consists of potentially significant findings. These findings can be a safety
hazard, a deficiency requiring a major expenses to correct or items I would like to draw extra
attention to. The summary is not a complete listing of all the findings in the report, and reflects the
opinion of the inspector. Please review all of the pages of the report as the summary alone does not
explain all the issues. All repairs must be done by a licensed &bonded trade or profession. I
recommend obtaining a copy of all receipts, warranties and permits for the work done.
Interior Areas
Page 8 Item: 7 Electrical • Reversed polarity observed in the living plug. Recommend
evaluation by a licensed electrical contractor and review for
costs of repairs as needed before closing.
Page 8 Item: 9 Smoke Detectors • **CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS**
• No CO detector present at time of inspection. CO detectors
are required whenever there is a combustible source in the
home or an attached garage. Recommend installation of
adequate detector within 15 feet of each bedroom as per
industry standards before closing.
Page 9 Item: 16 Fireplace • **Wood Fireplaces**
• There is a large hole cut into the firebox and does not
appear to be functional. Recommend complete evaluation of
all firebox and flue conditions by a licensed chimney sweep
before closing.
Page 10 Item: 17 Window Condition • Although functional, most of the windows in the home are
antiquated single pane glass. Consider review for costs of
replacement before occupancy.
Bedrooms
Page 12 Item: 6 Electrical • Open ground observed in this location. Recommend review
for costs of repairs before closing.
Page 12 Item: 8 Floor Condition • In the inspectors opinion the floor is near the end of its useful
life due to typical wear and age. Consider evaluation by a
qualified flooring company and review for costs of
replacement of all carpeted areas in the home before closing.
Page 14 Item: 16 Screen Doors • Sliding door screen is missing. Recommend review for costs
of replacement before closing.
Bathroom
Page 1 of 67
Page 22 Item: 7 GFCI • No GFCI -

Electrical outlets in this bathroom appeared to be in
serviceable condition at the time of the inspection but had no
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection.
Although this condition may have been commonly considered
safe or acceptable at the time the home was originally
constructed, as general knowledge of safe building practices
has improved with the passage of time, building standards
have changed to reflect current understanding.
Consider having GFCI protection installed as a safety
precaution for outlets within 6 feet of a plumbing fixture.
This can be achieved by:
1. Replacing the current standard outlets with GFCI outlets
2. Replacing the outlet in this bathroom circuit which is
nearest the main electrical service panel with a GFCI outlet.
3. Replacing the breaker currently protecting the electrical
circuit which contains these bathroom outlets with a GFCI
breaker.
This condition is typical at other required locations as well.
Recommend evaluation by a licensed electrical contractor and
review for costs of upgrades to current industry standards
before closing.
Page 23 Item: 9 Floor Condition • Carpet is not recommended in bathrooms due to potential to
harbor moisture, which could lead to unwanted mold issues.
Recommend review for costs of replacement before closing.
Page 25 Item: 20 Window Condition • Evidence of condensation observed at this location. This is
an indication of failed seals between the dual glazing of the
window. Recommend evaluation by a qualified window
company and review for costs of replacement before closing.
Bathroom 2
Page 27 Item: 7 GFCI • This GFCI did not respond to the trip device. Recommend
evaluation by a licensed electrical contractor and review for
costs of repairs before closing.
Page 29 Item: 19 Toilets • Although functional, this toilet is loose at the base but there
is no evidence of leaks. Recommend tightening the anchor
bolts before occupancy.
Kitchen
Page 32 Item: 8 Oven & Range • Anti-Tip devises became a UL (Underwriters Laboratories)
safety standard requirement in 1991.
• Anti-tip bracket is missing from range installation. See label
inside oven door. All freestanding, slide-in ranges include an
anti-tip device and is essential in the safe operation of the
range. It provides protection when excess force or weight is
applied to an open oven door. Carried by home building
centers. Recommend installation as per industry standards.
Page 35 Item: 24 GFCI • No GFCI protection present, suggest installing GFCI
protected receptacles for safety.
Laundry
Page 36 Item: 5 Electrical • Missing switch covers observed. Recommend replacement.
Heat/AC
Page 39 Item: 1 Heater Condition • This type of system is beyond the scope of this inspection.
The boiler appeared functional. Consider evaluation by a
qualified technician to verify conditions before closing.
Page 2 of 67
Water Heater
Page 41 Item: 1 Base • There is no pan under either of the heaters. Recommend
installation of adequate drip pans before occupancy.
Page 41 Item: 5 Water Heater • The heater in the laundry room was manufactured in June of
Condition 2000 and is at or near the end of expected service life.
Recommend evaluation by a licensed plumbing contractor
and review for costs of replacement or purchasing a home
warranty before closing.
Page 42 Item: 11 Strapping • Not to code in bathroom 2, requires two steel straps 1/3 from
the top and the bottom. Recommend installation as per
industry standards before closing.
Electrical
Page 44 Item: 1 Electrical Panel • There is a Zinsco service panel present. Zinsco components
are prone to problems that can lead to failures, lack of proper
protection of circuits and other serious issues, including fire
and electrocution. We cannot definitively call this panel
defective, but recommend evaluation by a licensed electrical
contractor to verify conditions and review for costs of
replacement if needed before closing. You can learn more
about this issue at http://www.inspect-
ny.com/electric/zinsco.htm
Page 45 Item: 5 Breakers • Zinsco breakers observed. Consider review for costs of
replacement before closing.
Garage
Page 47 Item: 5 Rafters & Ceiling • The drywall tape is falling from the seams compromising the
integrity of the firewall separation. Recommend evaluation by
a licensed drywall contractor and review for costs of repairs as
needed before closing.,
Page 47 Item: 6 Electrical • Open junction box observed. Recommend evaluation by a
licensed electrical contractor and review for costs of repairs as
needed before closing.
Page 48 Item: 7 GFCI • No GFCI protection present, suggest installing GFCI
protected receptacles for safety.
Page 48 Item: 10 Fire Door • The door between the garage & house is not a fire rated
door. Fire doors are fundamental to the integrity of fire barriers
which provide resistance to the spread of fire, smoke, and
toxic gasses. This means that should a fire occur in the
garage, this door does not afford protection until fire-rescue
people arrive. This door should be replaced with a fire rated
door. Recommend evaluation by a licensed contractor and
review for costs of upgrade to current industry standards
before closing.
Roof
Page 51 Item: 1 Roof Condition • Clean roof areas: Significant amounts of organic debris
evident.

condition at the time of the inspection. Areas of mildew like
staining observed. Recommend cleaning as needed before
occupancy.
Page 59 Item: 5 Exterior Paint • Peeling paint observed on many of the exposed wood
surfaces. Recommend evaluation by a licensed painting
contractor and review for costs of repairs as needed before
closing.
Grounds
Page 61 Item: 3 Vegetation • Tree limbs within 10 feet of roof should be trimmed away to
Observations provide air and sunlight to roof, while minimizing debris &
dampness.
Page 62 Item: 5 Patio and Porch • Areas of rot observed in the particle board that wraps the
Deck posts of the porch roof. Recommend evaluation by a licensed
contractor and review for costs of repair/replacement as
needed before closing.

inadequate clearance.
• Recommend at least 18 inches of clear access to gain entry.
Page 66 Item: 9 Sub Flooring • Areas of damaged insulation observed most likely due to
past rodent activity.

We appreciate the opportunity to conduct this inspection for you! Please carefully read your entire
Inspection Report. Call us after you have reviewed your report, so we can go over any questions
you may have. Remember, when the inspection is completed and the report is delivered, we are still
available to you for any questions you may have, throughout the entire closing process.
Properties being inspected do not "Pass" or "Fail.” - The following report is based on an inspection
of the visible portion of the structure; inspection may be limited by vegetation and possessions.
Depending upon the age of the property, some items like GFI outlets may not be installed; this
report will focus on safety and function, not current code. This report identifies specific non-
code, non-cosmetic concerns that the inspector feels may need further investigation or repair.
For your safety and liability purposes, we recommend that licensed contractors evaluate and repair
any critical concerns and defects. Note that this report is a snapshot in time. We recommend
that you or your representative carry out a final walk-through inspection immediately before
closing to check the condition of the property, using this report as a guide.

Bathroom
Bathrooms can consist of many features from jacuzzi tubs and showers to toilets and bidets.
Because of all the plumbing involved it is an important area of the house to look over. Moisture in the
air and leaks can cause mildew, wallpaper and paint to peel, and other problems. The home
inspector will identify as many issues as possible but some problems may be undetectable due to
problems within the walls or under the flooring..

Heat/AC
The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning and cooling system (often referred to as HVAC) is the
climate control system for the structure. The goal of these systems is to keep the occupants at a
comfortable level while maintaining indoor air quality, ventilation while keeping maintenance costs at
a minimum. The HVAC system is usually powered by electricity and natural gas, but can also be
powered by other sources such as butane, oil, propane, solar panels, or wood.
The inspector will usually test the heating and air conditioner using the thermostat or other controls.
For a more thorough investigation of the system please contact a licensed HVAC service person.

10. Fire Door

Observations:
X • The door between the garage & house is not a fire rated door. Fire doors
are fundamental to the integrity of fire barriers which provide resistance to
the spread of fire, smoke, and toxic gasses. This means that should a fire
occur in the garage, this door does not afford protection until fire-rescue
people arrive. This door should be replaced with a fire rated door.
Recommend evaluation by a licensed contractor and review for costs of
upgrade to current industry standards before closing.

Roof
1. Roof Condition
Materials: Roof was visually inspected from accessible points on the interior
X and/or exterior. If a roof is too high, is too steep, is wet, or is composed of
materials which can be damaged if walked upon, the roof is not mounted or
some areas not walked upon. Therefore, client is advised that this is a limited
review and a licensed roofer should be contacted if a more detailed report is
desired.
Materials: Composition shingles noted.

inspected due to limited visibility of the framing members upon which the
inspector must walk. In such cases,the attic is only partially accessed,
thereby limiting the review of the attic area from the hatch area only.
