Report Overview
This inspection report reflects the condition of the property at the time of the inspection only. The following is an opinion report, expressed as a result of the inspection and does not attest to the accuracy of design, compliance with codes, or selection of materials. Please understand that there are limitations to this inspection. Many components of the home are not visible during the inspection and very little historical information is provided in advance of the inspection. While we can reduce your risk of purchasing a home, we cannot eliminate it, nor can we assume it. Even the most comprehensive inspection cannot be expected to reveal every condition you may consider significant to ownership. In addition to those improve ments recommended in our report, we recommend that you budget for unexpected repairs. This report is not intended to be a deficiency report, but rather a current status of the home with positive comments as well as short & long term recommended improvement s that may or may not be desired along with observed deficiencies that should be corrected as they are of a structural or safety/health concern. THE HOUSE IN PERSPECTIVE This is a well built home that has had some structural movement. Apart from the short term need to deal with these structural concerns, the improvements that are recommended in this report are not considered unusual for a home of this age and location. Please remember that there is no such thing as a perfect home. The home is estimated to be 60 years old. CONVENTIONS USED IN THIS REPORT For your convenience, the following conventions have been used in this report. Major Concern: Denotes a major improvement/recommendation that is significantly deficient or is unsafe and is uncommon for a home of this age or location and should be addressed as soon as possible. This is a potential or major structural, mechanical, safety, and/or health concern that can affect the home or occupants in the short term. These significant deficiencies need to be corrected and, except for some safety items, may involve significant expense. Safety Issue: Denotes a observation or recommendation that is generally considered a significant safety and/or health concern that is a real and present danger & in need of prompt attention. Repair: Denotes a system or component which is missing or which needs corrective action to assure proper and reliable function. Repairs and/or improvements may or may not be necessary as desired by the client. These improvements normally do not represent a major or significant structural, mechanical, safety, and/or health concern that represent a significant problem and/or a real and present danger. Improve: Denotes a system or component, which are recommended but not required. Repairs and/or improvements may or may not be necessary as desired by the client. These improvements normally do not represent a major or significant structural, mechanical, safety, and/or health concern that represent a significant problem and/or a real and present danger.

555 Somewhere St., Wonderful;, WV THE SCOPE OF THE INSPECTION

Page 5 of 20

The goal of a professional home inspection is to identify significant deficiencies and to give our client an understanding of the overall condition of the home. Inspections are visual, limited in scope, and are not technically exhaustive. A home inspection will not identify concealed conditions or latent defects. A representative sample of building components is viewed in areas that are accessible at the time of the inspection. No destructive testing or dismantling of building components is performed. It is the goal of the inspection to put a homebuyer in a better position to make a buying decision. Not all improvements will be identified during this inspection. Unexpected repairs should still be anticipated. The inspection and report should not be considered a guarantee or warranty of any kind. A lack of maintenance or severe weather conditions can change the condition of a home. Temperature and moisture changes can produce changes in the soil that have the potential to cause defects within the structure, walls, and foundation at a later time. No geotechnical (soils) investigations have been performed as part of this inspection. Conscientious maintenance procedures should be practiced in order to maintain your investment and minimize future problems and/or concerns. Please refer to the pre -inspection contract and the ASHI Standards for a full explanation of the scope of the inspection. WEATHER CONDITIONS Wet weather conditions prevailed at the time of the inspection. The estimated outside temperature was 50 degrees F. RECENT WEATHER CONDITIONS Wet weather conditions have been experienced in the days leading up to the inspection. Winter weather conditions have been experienced in the days leading up to the inspection.

than 2, 2 measured, horizontal movement within four vertical feet was observed. This amount of movement normally is approaching or exceeding the point of structural stability of a foundation wall. This amount of movement is significant and

555 Somewhere St., Wonderful;, WV Page 7 of 20 visually obvious. Corrective actions are required . Lot drainage improvements should also be addressed after completion of the repairs. See Exterior Section. The exterior wall around the front and side wall areas should be excavated and the wall pushed back into position (this is not always 100% possible) and then re-enforced or rebuilt as an ivany block wall as some of the foundation wall may be damaged to the extent that it cannot be retrofitted. The exterior around the bowed and excavated wall areas are to have an exterior toe drain installed, a drainage matting material with impervious membrane placed against the wall, the open excavation covered with a filter fabric, and then be back- filled with a pervious material to within 12 of the ground surface. See Diagrams. The exterior surface drainage should be established to flow storm waters away from the foundations. To re-enforce the walls (including the partition wall between the garage and main basement to act as a buttress) from the interior core cavities of the concrete block, one technique is as follows: The vertical internal hollow core cavities (two minimum within the same block) of every other concrete block along the wall should be filled with concrete and one strand of #4 rebar (One strand per hollow core for a total of two #4 strands per block) every 32 inches (every other block) along the bowed section of the wall. The vertical rebar must be installed below the basement concrete slab and tied or secured into the top sill plate (If a sill plate does not exist, the top of the re-enforced wall should be secured to the floor structure with continuous 3 angle iron.) This technique creates a set of internal support columns within the wall and re-enforces the wall at the top and bottom from horizontal forces. The rate of movement cannot be predicted during a one-time inspection.

Repair: Slightly larger than typical exterior wall horizontal movement cracks were observed in the foundation walls intermediate and rear foundation walls These cracks appear to be from horizontal

555 Somewhere St., Wonderful;, WV Page 8 of 20 forces causing cracks within the house and foundation. The amount of movement suggest a significant structural concern at present, and there Concrete are indications of on-going movement/settlement as underpin on rear observed in the foundation wall cracks that had been foundation?? patched and have had additional separation.. The rate of movement cannot be predicted during a onetime visit to the home. As there cannot be any surety that the foundation will not have any additional movement and/or potential settlement and the foundation needs to at least be stabilized to prevent any additional movement, it would be prudent to stabilize the foundation and footer system. Stabilizing the foundation, or sometimes even pulling the foundation back into position, can be done by installing helical soil anchors. 5 are suggested for the middle wall foundation section between the basement and crawl space and 8 are recommended for the rear full foundation footer. Installing anchors on the ear foundation wall may be difficult as there appears to be a previous concrete underpin or reenforcement that has been installed Floor on the rear wall. See Diagram. Settlement Repair: The concrete floor in the right rear corner of the front basement has settled. This appears to be a function of the middle foundation wall (between the basement and crawl space) movement to the rear and a possible leak in the sewer and drain system. Removal of the rear half of the slab is recommended in order to install the anchors supports for the wall between the basement and crawl space and to investigate the possible leakage of the sewer lines. Repairs to the serer lines should be made is or as required. Repair: A temporary support structure was observed under the garage concrete floor structure. As this was temporary, the structural stability and adequacy of the concrete is in question, and there is other extensive foundation repairs being conducted on this homes foundation; this would be a good opportunity to properly replace the structure with a new concrete floor.

555 Somewhere St., Wonderful;, WV Repair: The floor structure shows evidence of localized rot at the base of the front inside roof slope at the base of the rafter and supporting sill plate. Rot weakens the structure and causes building damage. Rot develops where untreated wood is in contact with moisture such as a previous roof leak. Damaged wood should be repaired or replaced and the conditions that have promoted the rot should be corrected. Repairs should be made as required.

LIMITATIONS OF STRUCTURE INSPECTION As we have discussed and as described in your inspection contract, this is a visual inspection limited in scope by (but not restricted to) the following conditions: A lack of maintenance or severe weather conditions can change the condition of a home. Temperature and moisture changes can produce changes in the soil that have the potential to cause defects within the structure, walls and foundation at a later time. No geotechnical (soils) investigations have been performed as part of this inspection. Unexpected repairs should still be anticipated. The inspection should not be considered a guarantee or warranty of any kind. Conscientious maintenance procedures should be practiced in order to maintain your investment and minimize future problems. Structural components concealed behind finished surfaces could not be inspected. Only a representative sampling of visible structural components were inspected. Furniture and/or storage restricted access to some structural components. Please also refer to the pre- inspection contract for a detailed explanation of the scope of this inspection.

Exterior
DESCRIPTION OF EXTERIOR Lot Grading: EXTERIOR OBSERVATIONS RECOMMENDATIONS / OBSERVATIONS Major Concern, Repair: The grading throughout should be improved to promote the flow of storm water away from the house. This can often be accomplished by the reshaping of Lot slopes generally downward from front to rear

existing top soil. The ground should slope away from the house at a rate of one inch per foot for at least the first ten feet. At least eight (8) inches of clearance should be maintained between soil level and the bottom of exterior wall siding. A drainage swale (if effect, a wide and shallow ditch) should then be created at the front of the property. Drainage swales are intended to divert storm water away from the house and ultimately off the lot. Repair: The installation of a drain is recommended for the driveway. The drain should be arranged to effectively drain water from the drive while resisting clogging. Drive runoff must be directed away from the building to avoid water entry/damage. Drain Needed

The following checklist should help you undertake these improvements: q Change the locks on all exterior entrances, for improved security. q Check that all windows and doors are secure. Improve window hardware as necessary. Security rods can be added to sliding windows and doors. Consideration could also be given to a security system. q Install smoke detectors on each level of the home. Ensure that there is a smoke detector outside all sleeping areas. Replace batteries on any existing smoke detectors and test them. Make a note to replace batteries again in one year. q Create a plan of action in the event of a fire in your home. Ensure that there is an operable window or door in every room of the house. Consult with your local fire department regarding fire safety issues and what to do in the event of fire. q Examine driveways and walkways for trip hazards. Undertake repairs where necessary. q Examine the interior of the home for trip hazards. Loose or torn carpeting and flooring should be repaired. q Undertake improvements to all stairways, decks, porches and landings where there is a risk of falling or stumbling. q Review your home inspection report for any items that require immediate improvement or further investigation. Address these areas as required. q Install rain caps and vermin screens on all chimney flues, as necessary. q Investigate the location of the main shut-offs for the plumbing, heating and electrical systems. If you attended the home inspection, these items would have been pointed out to you. REGULAR MAINTENANCE EVERY MONTH q Check that fire extinguisher(s) are fully charged. Re-charge if necessary. q Examine heating/cooling air filters and replace or clean as necessary. q Inspect and clean humidifiers and electronic air cleaners. q If the house has hot water heating, bleed radiator valves. q Clean gutters and downspouts. Ensure that downspouts are secure, and that the discharge of the downspouts is appropriate. Remove debris from window wells. q Carefully inspect the condition of shower enclosures.

SPRING AND FALL q Examine the roof for evidence of damage to roof coverings, flashings and chimneys. q Look in the attic (if accessible) to ensure that roof vents are not obstructed. Check for evidence of leakage, condensation or vermin activity. Level out insulation if needed. q Trim back tree branches and shrubs to ensure that they are not in contact with the house. q Inspect the exterior walls and foundation for evidence of damage, cracking or movement. Watch for bird nests or other vermin or insect activity. q Survey the basement and/or crawl space walls for evidence of moisture seepage. q Look at overhead wires coming to the house. They should be secure and clear of trees or other obstructions. q Ensure that the grade of the land around the house encourages water to flow away from the foundation. q Inspect all driveways, walkways, decks, porches, and landscape components for evidence of deterioration, movement or safety hazards. q Clean windows and test their operation. Improve caulking and weather-stripping as necessary. Watch for evidence of rot in wood window frames. Paint and repair window sills and frames as necessary. q Test all ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) devices, as identified in the inspection report. q Shut off isolating valves for exterior hose bibs in the fall, if below freezing temperatures are anticipated. q Test the Temperature and Pressure Relief (TPR) Valve on water heaters. q Inspect for evidence of wood boring insect activity. Eliminate any wood/soil contact around the perimeter of the home. q Test the overhead garage door opener, to ensure that the auto-reverse mechanism is responding properly. Clean and lubricate hinges, rollers and tracks on overhead doors. q Replace or clean exhaust hood filters. q Clean, inspect and/or service all appliances as per the manufacturers recommendations. ANNUALLY q Replace smoke detector batteries. q Have the heating, cooling and water heater systems cleaned and serviced. q Have chimneys inspected and cleaned.

555 Somewhere St., Wonderful;, WV Page 18 of 20 q If your home is in an area prone to wood destroying insects (termites, carpenter ants, etc.), have the home inspected by a licensed specialist. Preventative treatments may be recommended in some cases. PREVENTION IS THE BEST APPROACH Although weve heard it many times, nothing could be more true than the old clich an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Preventative maintenance is the best way to keep your house in great shape. It also reduces the risk of unexpected repairs and improves the odds of selling your house at fair market value, when the time comes. Please feel free to contact our office should you have any questions regarding the operation or maintenance of your home. Enjoy your home!
