What does a home inspection NOT cover in Faribault?

A standard home inspection is a thorough visual, non-invasive evaluation of the home's major systems and components, but it has limits, and we believe in being upfront about them. We don't open walls, move heavy furniture or stored belongings, or dismantle equipment, so anything hidden behind finishes can't be seen, an important caveat in Faribault's older homes where past work is buried in walls. We don't predict the future or guarantee how long a furnace or roof will last. Specialized concerns often need dedicated testing: radon requires a separate monitor, a buried clay sewer lateral needs a camera scope, and things like mold, lead paint, asbestos, and well water typically need lab testing or a specialist. We also don't inspect inside chimney flues beyond what's visible or evaluate code compliance like a municipal inspector. What we do is give you an honest, expert snapshot of current condition and flag where deeper investigation is warranted. We'll always recommend appropriate add-ons rather than leave you guessing.
