I would strongly advise against using SEG Home Inspections…read more In 2019, SEG Home Inspections inspected a house I wanted to purchase. Several problems were noted in the final report, but there were no warnings not to purchase. Included in the list was that the gable end was sagging and that the back door of the house was set several inches below the interlocks. It was estimated that the repairs would cost $2000 and the seller deducted this. The true cost to repair everything that was wrong in the house? Closer to $200,000 and still going up. The proposed solution for the back door was to raise it up to the same level as the interlocks. As a home inspector, Daniel should have known that you can not just raise a door to bring it to grade because stepping down into a house violates the building code. So, the landing had to be raised. You can not raise a landing without affecting the staircases connected to the landings and so two new staircases were needed. A structural engineer was needed, building permits applied for and $20,000 later, the problem was fixed. The sagging gable? This was a broken truss. It had snapped because it had been notched with a birds mouth by the original builders and then dozens of nails were put in to try to fix it. Daniel never climbed into the attic to look around. If he had, he may have found the damage. The cost to fix a truss? Engineering reports, sistering the broken parts, 3/4 plywood reinforcement. The siding had to come off and be replaced. Thousands of dollars. Also noted was that whole parts of the house had minimal insulation. The front bedroom had no insulation over it. Daniel did not notice this because he did not climb into the attic. Windows that had been installed in the house were installed incorrectly. The front windows had showed signs of water damage. This was because there was no spray foam around the windows. The owner had installed the windows using screws that went down into the wood below. This gave water a path to flow into the wall below the window. This happened on all of the windows in the house. All had to be replaced. Several appliances did not work. The washer was full of mold and could not complete a cycle. The inspector noted that a post under the car port had shifted. What he didn't mention or didn't know was that this was a sign that the concrete foundation post had cracked and was moving. A new footing was poured and post were required. Thousands more in expenses. The house had no bridging in the basement and the floors therefore were springing. This was not mentioned. The chimney was falling apart and had to be replaced. The bricks came out by just touching them. The cost to take the chimney down to the roof line and then put it back up? $7000. The area around the front door had water damage and the grout of the bricks was falling apart. A new threshold had to be put in and the grout around the bricks replaced. $5000. The front door did not shut properly and you could see gaps at the bottom. Door to be replaced. The inspector noted that tiles had moved. This should not be possible and it turns out it was because they were stick on tiles, not real ones. Daniel did note that the toilet was wobbly and that it could lead to leaks. The former owner had put shims under it and this caused sewage to flow out from under the toilet and under the surrounding hardwood floors in the hallway. It also leaked into the basement. It was so bad that the subfloor had to come up and be replaced. An electrician was called in to look at the wiring after the inspection and the electrician called the house the worst he had ever seen. Sparks flew out of outlets when touched. The shutoff for the furnace was hidden above a drop ceiling. It has now been over two years since the house was purchased and the repairs continue. I would rather have purchased a house for $200k more and gotten something better than borrowing so much to make unexpected repairs on this disaster of a house.
