Buying a Home? Be sure to check that crawlspace!

Buying a home can be a very exciting and rewarding experience. Don’t let your dream become a nightmare by buying a home with a bad foundation. The inspectors here at John Robinson’s Inspection Group take their time to inspect your home’s foundation and enter every crawlspace to ensure your home’s foundation is in working order. Check out these picks of a few issues we recently found during a San Diego home inspection in Pacific Beach.

What’s in Your Crawlspace?

This old cast-iron drain line was leaking in the crawlspace of this San Diego home built in the 1950’s. This is causing an excess of moisture to accumulate.

Leaking drain lines and improper site drainage can have an adverse effect on the stabilityof your home’s foundation, attract wood destroying organisms and cause mold growth. The owners of this property had no idea that this was occurring right under their feet.

Periodic inspections of crawlspaces and attics can help to keep your home in tip top shape. Call us today at 619-684-1444 to see how a home maintenance review can help protect your investment.

John Robinson Inspection Group was able to schedule a home inspection for us on short notice. The inspector, Wyatt, arrived on time and was very professional. Although we had initially intended to follow the inspector around, the company policy is that the inspector should not be disturbed such that they can focus on their inspection related tasks.

Wyatt spent about 3.5 hours inspecting every aspect of the house alerting us to many findings. The inspection was quite comprehensive and we are completely satisfied with the service.

After the inspection, we were given an oral summary of the findings along with explanations to help educate us on building code and other issues. The inspection summary was sent via email to us on the evening of the inspection (~8 hour turn around). It includes pictures of every room along with documentation of issues and photos of the problem. We had several questions about a few of the called items and Wyatt spoke with us on the phone to clarify the findings in further detail.

We strongly recommend John Robinson Inspection Group and especially our inspector, Wyatt.

Adrian was thorough when inspecting our property and was able to walk us through his findings in a way that made us feel comfortable as first time homebuyers.

We are in the process of purchasing our new home in Santee CA and was very impressed by the quality of professional service we received from John Robinson's Inspection Group. Curtis did a very detailed inspection of the property and once completed submitted a complete report of any findings with pictures explaining exactly what needs to be done on how.

I absolutely have no complaints and was very satisfied with their service.

I'm a realtor who works with home inspectors all the time. This is my first time recommending John's Robinson's Inspections for my clients and certainty won't be the last.
Andrew was our home inspector and did an outstanding job! He was thorough with his inspection and also made the inspection a very pleasant one. If you want the Ritz Carlton experience for home inspections don't hesitate to choose John Robinson's Inspection and make sure you ask for Andrew!

As a first time homebuyer, there is a whirlwind of information and documents to take care of. Having a home inspection done on your house seems like another checkbox to write off, but John Robinson's Group helped me respect the process and appreciate what a good home inspector can do.

Curtis of John Robinson's was punctual, polite, thorough, and meticulous throughout his process of inspecting our property. The photos were well documented, and he made sense of it all in a summary when I arrived at the property later in the day.

I would highly recommend John Robinson's for home inspection any day of the week.
