Maybe you didn’t know this about fireplaces, and maybe you should double check yours if you have one.

🚰 What's wrong with an S-trap?

You might think that as long as the sink drains, everything is working properly. Not necessarily!

S-traps can create a siphoning effect that pulls water out of the trap. That water is actually what keeps sewer gases and unpleasant odors from entering your home. 🤢

Modern plumbing uses properly vented traps to help prevent this problem.

Just because it drains doesn't mean it's right!

🏠 Does movement in a frieze board mean you have foundation problems? Not necessarily!

Separation or movement at the frieze board can be an indicator that the home has experienced some movement over time.

However, one indicator alone doesn't mean you have a foundation problem. Homes naturally experience some movement due to changes in soil moisture, seasonal conditions, and normal settling.

As a home inspector, I'm looking for multiple indicators throughout the property to help determine whether that movement may be something more concerning.

😂 There’s a LOT going on under this house… but we’ll save that for another day.
For now, just remember: dryer vents need to terminate outside, not underneath the house.
Dumping hot, moist, lint-filled air into the crawlspace can contribute to moisture problems and create a buildup of lint where you definitely don't want it.

🔥⚡ Gas and electricity sharing a closet… what could go wrong? 😂
I inspected a home where the gas water heater and electrical panel were installed in the same small closet. Electrical panels require proper working space and shouldn't share that space with equipment that creates clearance, access, or safety concerns.
Some things just need their own personal space. 😂

🏠 Apparently this plumbing vent was a little shy. 😂
Plumbing vents should extend at least 6 inches above the roof, but this one didn't quite make it.
Proper height helps keep the vent opening clear of water, debris, and other obstructions so the plumbing system can vent properly.

🌡️ You can cover it up… but you can’t hide it from the thermal camera. 😂
During a bathroom remodel, an old window was covered over, but apparently the insulation didn't make the remodel list.
My thermal camera picked up the missing insulation inside the wall—something I never would've been able to see with my eyes alone.
Just another tool in the toolbox that helps me find what the house is trying to hide. 👀

🚽 This is exactly why I recommend adding a sewer camera inspection.
I found a small damaged section of the sewer line where root intrusion had already started. From everything above ground, I would've never known it was there.
Small problem now… potentially a VERY expensive problem later. 😬
You can't inspect what you can't see. Be safe and add the sewer camera.
