- An inspection can be likened to a physical exam by a physician; however, it should be clearly understood that a home inspection is NOT to be confused with an appraisal, a building code inspection, a guarantee of any kind, and/or an insurance policy on the condition of the property. The home inspection report shall forthrightly disclose the physical condition of the systems of the home including those which are potential safety hazards as observed at the time of the inspection.
- During an inspection, the inspector will review the readily accessible exposed portions of the structure of the home including: roof, attic, walls, ceilings, floors, windows, doors, basement, and foundation as well as the general exterior and interior conditions, heating/air conditioning systems, insulation/ventilation, interior plumbing, and electrical systems for potential problems.

- As of May 2001, Home Inspectors are required to be licensed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It shall be noted that many Home Inspectors grandfathered into the new licensing system have never received the educational and training requirements necessary to deliver the consumer the best possible home inspection. The Home Inspectors at Above and Beyond Home Inspections exceed the required educational requirements and bring this expertise to each and every home inspection.
- Inspectors must provide a written evaluation report based on the standards of compliance in accordance with CMR 266.6.00. At the conclusion of the home inspection, the buyer should be well informed of the condition of the home. It should be known if there are visible, apparent problems, if repairs need are required, or whether or not there are any risks of concealed damage, and whether further investigation is recommended and/or required.
- In addition to a home inspection, it is strongly recommended that potential home buyers consider having their Home Inspector perform the following inspections and/or tests prior to signing the final purchase agreement:

Gauge Attributes
Customers can Gauge service providers on the following 10 attributes. Not all attributes will apply to all service providers.
- Punctuality and Timely Completion: No one likes to wait or have large windows of time where service providers "might" get to them. No one likes the job to drag out because of the service provider's other projects or if it becomes apparent that the SP did not plan well.
- Workmanship: No one likes shoddy work, shortcuts, or tradesmen who take advantage of the customer's lack of awareness of what is good quality work.
- Responsibility: Many home owners do not wear shoes in their home and service providers should wear covers over their shoes when necessary. SP's should not travel into rooms that are not in the work scope. They should not use the toilet without asking. If the SP soils or breaks something, they should try to replace it.
- Professionalism: A Professional does not try to add unnecessary work to the contract. Nor do they try to make themselves look good by demeaning their competition or by discussing religion or politics. Professionals stand behind their price and make the experience pleasant with the customer.
- Cleans Up Daily: Customers like to know that each day when service providers leave the room, it is in a broom swept condition, meaning nothing laying around loose, dangerous, all cords are rolled up, and trash or debris is contained or removed. SP's should clean up at the end of the job.
- Friendly: No one wants to hear service providers' personal problems. The service provider should be pleasant to be around.
- Responsive to a Customer's Call: Call backs should be made in the same day and the service provider should do what was promised.
- Well Organized: Generally speaking, from start to finish, the process went well, any concerns were addressed or corrected, and the repair or project ended well with everyone satisfied.
- Hygiene: The service provider should look clean, smell clean, and wear shoe covers indoors when needed.
- Recommended: Would you recommend this individual or company?
