Home Inspection Professionals Of Bull Run

HouseMaster examines both the exterior and interior during our home inspections in Manassas and nearby communities. We scrutinize the visible siding and trim, windows, doors, garages, porches, decks, stairs, and railings. We assess the elements for proper construction and function, looking for damage, missing components, or other conditions that might lead to infiltration or functional concerns.

Moving indoors, we inspect the visible areas of all walls, ceilings, stairways, representative windows and doors, and attic areas for signs of leakage, damage, sagging, or other structural concerns. We operate all windows to determine function. In accessible attics, besides assessing structural components, we will note insulation and ventilation conditions.

HouseMaster inspects all visible load-bearing framing components, foundation walls, slabs, piers and columns, and major structural components. Visible, accessible structural components will be assessed for function and the presence of damage, decay, or defects. We look for water penetration in below-grade areas.

During a home inspection in Culpeper and neighboring communities, we thoroughly inspect the kitchen plumbing fixtures and built-in appliances. We check plumbing fixtures, looking for water pressure or drainage issues and visible signs of leaks. We check the basic operational modes of the appliances and ventilators and look at cabinets and countertops for significant deficiencies.

Our Culpeper home inspectors examine all visible components of the central AC or heat pump system, including condensers and air handlers, as well as the distribution ductwork. We operate the system to assess the function and condition of the accessible indoor/ outdoor components. The distribution system will also be assessed.

A meticulous evaluation of the electrical system is an essential component of any property inspection in Culpeper and surrounding areas. We inspect all visible service panel components and household wiring and devices. We assess the condition of readily accessible panel components, note the presence of GFCIs, AFCIs, and smoke alarms, and check the operation of representative outlets, switches, fixtures, and other devices.

As part of our Culpeper home inspection, we examine the visible water supply piping, distribution piping, waste system piping, water heaters, and plumbing fixtures. We also inspect the physical condition of piping, kitchen and bathroom fixtures (tubs, showers, toilets), and operate each to assess flow, drainage, and leakage. Water heating components will also be assessed.
