Some things I find in the field while performing home isnpections are down-right scary.  So you've read the title and are probably thinking to yourself, "How can a door at a home inspection be scary?"  Well, you'll just have to watch the video and see for yourself.  To give it a dramatic effect, I added a "scary" voice in the video (my own voice).  So this home inspection video blog is a little scary and hopefully a little funny (my 6-year old really laughed at it).

 

 

I hope this gives you a little more information about a professional home inspection and its value.  Be safe out there.

Finding leaks is certainly easier in the rain.  However, even in the rain, a leak cannot always be seen.  This is where the "tools of the trade" come in.  A moisture meter can detect moisture where it cannot be seen.  Of course a home isnpector usually has to use his sight first, then go to the moisture meter, as every sqaure-inch of a home cannot possibly be tested using a moisture meter.  However, during rain, it's always a good idea to use a moisture meter at window sills... this home inspection video blog shows an example.

This home inspection video blog in Chino Hills, CA is about garage door laser sensor eyes.  Most people know they provide safety for small children, but they forget they can protect pets also.  I sometimes hear, "But I don't have kids," well what about the neighbor's kids, relatives' kids, your pets, neighbors' pets, etc?  All garage doors should have laser sensor eyes for safety.  I hope you enjoy the home inspection video blog below:

This home inspection video blog in Fontana, CA is about hand rail safety.  I often see safety issues with hand rails which should be immediately repaired.  Stairs are a very common place for accidents and injuries.  The elderly and the young are most susceptible, but everyone is at risk.  I hope you enjoy the video blog below.

All you ever wanted to know about squirrels... just kidding.  This home inspection video blog in Chino Hills, CA has information about furnace maintenance.  Furnaces, just like cars, should be maintained regularly.  Some maintenance includes air filters, vacuuming air plenums and cleaning squirrel cages (or blower fans).  I hope you enjoy the home inspection video blog below:

Please read the full text for AB 118 by Hayashi at http://www.assembly.ca.gov/acs/acsframeset2text.htm and type in AB 1118 and the name Hayashi.  If you agree, write your local California Assembly member to support it.

There are currently no requirements by the State of California to call oneself a home inspector, AB 1118 would change that.  I don't think it's a perfect bill, but it's a step in the right direction.  I don't want to summarize it here because I would rather you read the actual text.

Please read it and let me know your thoughts?

Thanks,

Joseph Lang

This home inspection video blog is about pool gate safety.  This is a very important safety concerns and should be taken seriously.  Pool gates are there primarily to keep children out of the pool area and prevent drownings.  Of course, some people say, "No big deal, I don't have kids."  This does not hold true... what if a neighbor's kid goes in your backyard to get a ball that went over the wall... then they fall in your unprotected pool... boy, would the lawyers love that one!

Please view the video for information on pool gate safety:

Some safety items noted during a home inspection are relatively cheap, yet very important.  I find these types of safety items all the time and note them on my reports.  One such item is an anti-tip bracket for ovens/stoves.  The home inspection video blog below gives an example.

Sometimes I see things that are pretty funny during a home inspection.  This time I thought I'd take a video of it and share it with you.  Now keep in mind, home inspectors are a funny breed of people and not everyone will think it's too funny.  The video is more about making something useless in a home and therefore taking away any value it was intended to have.

Alas, I have taken too long to get to the point.  Please watch the video and let me know what you think.

Okay, I have officially moved to a video blog.  I will probably still do "old" blogs every once in a while, after all, I have thousands of home inspection pictures I'd love to share.  But for now I'm on a video blog kick.

This home inspection video blog is about having a light source in a room. Each room needs a light source so that occupants don't trip over items in the dark and get injured. When there isn't a light on the ceiling, there needs to be another way to provide light for the room. This home inspection video blog shows how that is done.
