HouseMaster Home Inspections Southern Oregon

When HouseMaster Southern Oregon inspects exterior elements, we check the visible siding and trim, windows, doors, garages, porches, decks, stairs, and railings. We also assess proper construction and function, looking for damage, missing components, or other conditions that might lead to infiltration or functional concerns.

When it comes to the interior part of your property inspection in Southern Oregon, we inspect visible areas of all walls, ceilings, stairways, representative windows and doors, and attic areas. We look for signs of leakage, damage, sagging, or other structural concerns. We will operate windows to determine function. In accessible attics, besides assessing structural components, we note insulation and ventilation conditions.

Along with inspecting visible load-bearing framing components, foundation walls, slabs, piers and columns, and major structural components, we assess visible, accessible structural components for function and the presence of damage, decay, or defects. We also look for water penetration in below-grade areas during a foundation inspection in Grants Pass, Medford, Ashland and nearby Southern Oregon communities.

Kitchen inspections in the Southern Oregon area include checking plumbing fixtures and built-in appliances for water pressure or drainage issues and visible signs of leaks. We also check the basic operational modes of the appliances and ventilators. We look at cabinets and countertops for significant deficiencies.

We inspect the visible components of the central AC or heat pump system, including condensers, air handlers, and the distribution ductwork. We then operate the system to assess the function and condition of the accessible indoor/outdoor components. The distribution system is also assessed.

We inspect visible service panel components and household wiring and devices. We also 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 during home inspections in Southern Oregon.

During a home inspection in Southern Oregon, we inspect visible water supply piping, distribution piping, waste system piping, water heaters, and plumbing fixtures. We also assess heating components and inspect the physical condition of piping, kitchen, and bathroom fixtures (tubs, showers, toilets) and operate to assess flow, drainage, and leakage.
