What's Inspected

Jay Markanich provides a comprehensive, personalized and computerized report to the client at the time of the inspection. Jay does everything from pre-drywall, new construction, condos, detached homes, to multi-properties. He has a special interest in and knowledge of historic properties.

All of Jay Markanich's inspections are performed to the best of his ability. He wants to provide a service that exceeds the expectations of every client. His inspections are all proudly done with strict adherence to the I-NACHI Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics. More important than that, Jay does every inspection, for every client, as he would do for himself - every one.

The report that follows an inspection typically takes about 20 minutes to generate. It includes the following:

Structural Components
Foundation
Exterior
Grounds
Roofing and related
Attic
Plumbing
Electrical
Heating and Air Conditioning
Fireplaces
Interior
Basement and Crawl Spaces
Insulation and Ventilation
Kitchen, Bath, Utilities
and Built-in Appliances

The report cross references into our 400+ page book, Your House, Your Home, which is provided free to the client at the end of the inspection. We are proud of it and consider it to be the most encyclopedic, yet understandable, home inspection book in the industry. It is written for homeowners who are not knowledgeable of every aspect of home ownership, be it structure, electrical or appliances. We like to say our book is all stuff and no fluff!
