Purpose of Woodland Home Inspections

Are there any big issues on the horizon? We'll let you know

At 45th Parallel Home Inspection, we understand that a home is more than just a structure—it's where memories are made, families grow, and dreams take shape. Our purpose is to protect these moments by carefully examining your home to ensure its safety, functionality, and value–or to make you aware of any issues.

Our home inspection serves as a critical step in the home-buying process, giving you a comprehensive understanding of any potential issues or areas of concern, and empowering you to make informed decisions and negotiate effectively. Not selling your home? Our Woodland home inspections help you better protect your largest investment.

At 45th Parallel Home Inspection, we understand the concerns that may arise when considering a home inspection:

• Cost Concerns: We offer competitive pricing and transparent service packages tailored to your specific needs, ensuring you receive exceptional value for your investment.
• Time Constraints: Our flexible scheduling options and efficient inspection process minimize disruption to your busy schedule, allowing you to prioritize what matters most.
• Fear of Uncovering Issues: Rest assured, our team is committed to providing honest, unbiased assessments of your property. We believe that knowledge is power, and by identifying potential and existing issues early, we empower you to address them proactively and protect your investment.
• Home Seller Hesitancy: As a home seller, you may think or have been told that having a pre-listing home inspection is a bad idea because it may uncover issues that another home inspector may not notice, and then you’re forced to disclose what you know. We feel the exact opposite is true. By knowing of any issues that will likely come up when you sell your home, you can address them upfront on your terms, rather than in a very tight contingency period window where you may be forced to accept inflated bids from contractors you did not consult with. A pre-listing inspection can help prepare your house for the market and get more money faster by being ready to go.

What Red Flags Can a Woodland Home Inspection Find?

Buyer Beware: What you should be looking for in a home inspection

Almost every home, even new construction, will have things that need repair. A door might stick, there could be some moss on the roof, or maybe the home feels a little outdated. And you might look past these little issues if you think this is the home you’ve been looking for.

But a Woodland home inspection from 45th Parallel may find these small problems are red flags that may uncover bigger troubles. We will inspect everything visible in the home, including:

Structural Integrity: Cracks in the foundation, sagging rooflines, or uneven floors may suggest structural issues that need immediate assessment.

Electrical Problems: Outdated wiring, overloaded circuits, or faulty electrical panels pose significant safety hazards and should be addressed promptly.

Water Damage: Stains on ceilings or walls, musty odors, or warped flooring may indicate water intrusion, which can lead to mold growth, pest intrusion, and even structural damage if left unattended.

HVAC Malfunctions: Inefficient heating or cooling systems due to poorly running equipment or disconnected ductwork, lack of maintenance, or improper ventilation can compromise indoor air quality and energy efficiency.

Pest Infestations: Signs of insects, rodents, or other pests can wreak havoc on a property's structure and pose health risks to occupants.

Our Woodland Home Inspection Services

• Home Inspections: Our thorough home inspections will assess your property from the foundation to the roof. We provide detailed reports outlining any visual issues or areas of concern, empowering you to make informed decisions about your investment.
• Sewer Line Inspections: We offer specialized sewer line inspections to assess the condition of your property's underground plumbing system. Identifying potential blockages, or damage early can prevent costly repairs and ensure proper functionality.
• Exterior Cladding Inspections: Our exterior cladding inspections focus on evaluating the condition of your home's exterior surfaces, including siding, stucco, brick, or stone veneer. Identifying defects or vulnerabilities in the cladding helps prevent water intrusion and maintain the aesthetic appeal of your property.
• Radon Testing: Radon is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that can seep into homes through cracks in the foundation or other openings. Prolonged exposure to high levels of radon can increase the risk of lung cancer–testing the home for radon allows you to identify if elevated levels are present and take corrective action to lower it
• Re-inspection: Have we already performed a home inspection for you, and have you negotiated repairs as part of the sale? If you want to make sure any repairs have been taken care of before finally signing on the dotted line, let us know and we can help. We’ll make sure everything you asked for has been taken care of or let you know what still needs to be done.
• Home Health Checkup: Even if you’re not selling the home, it’s still a good idea to make sure your home is in tip-top shape. Like having an annual health checkup at the doctor’s office, a home health checkup can help find small problems that can turn into major headaches.
