Table of Contents | Preview A Chapter

Inspecting A House is a heavily illustrated guide where a master plumber, electrician, and inspector presents a rational sequence of home inspection so that you won't miss anything in the inspection of heating, electrical, plumbing and drainage systems.

Whether it's an overloaded electrical panel, a driveway that sends water into the basement when it rains or a gas furnace that's improperly vented, you're shown how to spot and evaluate areas of concern during a home inspection.

In Inspecting A House, you’ll learn how to:

• Create a methodical system of inspection
• Evaluate heating, electrical and plumbing systems
• Check for "cross-connections" that can contaminate the water supply
• Ensure safety on the job
• Inspect roofs, gutters, flashing and more

Inspecting A House is also essential reading if you are a homeowner who wants to know what to look for yourself or know what the inspector is looking for. Realtors who want to judge the quality and resale value of a house will also benefit from this book.
