Construction/Ventilation

     When inspecting the bathrooms of your home, I will begin at the entry door; Inspecting for physical damage and operation of all available fixtures and attachments, I will then move on, ensuring that adequate ventilation for the bathroom is present, an operable tempered safety glass window or moisture exhausting fan to the exterior. Damaged floor and wall tiles, use of a non-intrusive moisture meter will be used to measure damage to drywall cabinets and shower pans, I ensure that tempered safety glass shower doors,  towel bars and paper holders are installed properly and all whirlpool tubs are filled inspected and operated. This is only a fraction of the items that will be inspected and documented in the inspection report.

Plumbing

     I perform a functional flow test of the bathroom plumbing by turning on all fixtures on at the same time, if there is a deviation in the flow or drainage, it is documented in the inspection report. The type of drain piping and supply lines are inspected for leaks, corrosion, cross contamination, operability and that they are properly anchored to the walls and floors.

Electrical

      In an effort to uncover some of the key safety defects found during a bathroom inspection; I utilize an Ideal Sure Test GFCI/AFCI and Circuit Analyzer to survey all of the receptacles and ensure that switches are correctly located and associated to appropriate lighting and make recommendations for safety upgrades when necessary.

 

      Details are the key to understanding the operation of your home, I encourage you to be present during the inspection process so I can pass along all of the information about your bathrooms and other parts of the inspection.
