1.0 | Roof Coverings | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace | ||
Cottonwood Roofing Company has conducted an inspection of the roof, including all flashings and penetrations, and have
provided a written report of that inspection. Recommend repairs be made as needed based on their findings. I did not
inspect the roof.
|
1.3 | Roof Drainage Systems | |
Repair or Replace | ||
(1) The downspout to the east of the front stoop is not fully discharging into the buried extension. Recommend repair so water is
carried away from the foundation
|
||
(2) The downspout west of the front porch is discharging too close to the house. Recommend an extension be added to carry
water away from the foundation.
|
2.4 | Vegetation, Grading, Drainage, Driveways, Patio Floor, Walkways and Retaining Walls (With respect to their effect on the condition of the building) | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace | ||
It is difficult to be sure due to the presence of mulch but it appears that grading in the area of the a/c condenser is sloping
back toward the house. Recommend it slope away to properly drain water away from the foundation.
|
3.5 | Garage Door Operators (Report whether or not doors will reverse when met with resistance) | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace | ||
The sensors are in place for garage door(s) and will reverse the door. However, they are mounted too high. This could be
hazardous for small children and pets. Recommend a qualified contractor relocate them no more than six inches from the
floor.
|
6.1 | Plumbing Water Supply, Distribution System and Fixtures | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace, General Comment | ||
(1) The hosebib on the west end of the house leaks slightly when it is on. Recommend repair by a qualified contractor.
|
||
(2) Note: The water pressure, measured at the hosebib on the west end, was approx. 60 psi. This is within a range that is
considered acceptable.
|
||
(3) Lawn sprinkler systems, water softeners and water filtration systems are not included in these inspections.
|
6.2 | Hot Water Systems, Controls, Chimneys, Flues and Vents | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace, General Comment | ||
The water heater is approx. 4 years old.
|
7.3 | Connected Devices and Fixtures (Observed from a representative number operation of ceiling fans, lighting fixtures, switches and receptacles located inside the house, garage, and on the dwelling's exterior walls) | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace | ||
The electrical outlet for the garage refrigerator is GFCI-protected. This is not recommended for refrigeration due to the
possibility of nuisance tripping which could result in loss of stored food.
|
7.8 | Carbon Monoxide Detectors | |
Repair or Replace | ||
There is no carbon monoxide detector found in home. It is recommended that CO detector(s) be installed in a number and
location(s) to meet manufacturer's instructions.
|
8.7 | Gas/LP Firelogs and Fireplaces | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace | ||
Note: The mantle is sloping away from the front of the fireplace. Recommend repair as needed.
|
8.8 | Cooling and Air Handler Equipment | |
Inspected, Repair or Replace, General Comment | ||
(1) The heat pump is a 4 ton unit approx. 4 years old.
|
||
(2) The pad the heat pump is on should be elevated above grade so dirt and debris cannot wash into the unit.
|
||
(3) We found a remote controller that appears to be the correct one for the ceiling fan in the family room but we could not get the
fan to operate. Recommend a qualified contractor repair/replace as needed.
