Homeowner Maintenance Inspections

You get regular checkups for your health and your car. Your home — likely your biggest investment — deserves the same attention.

A Checkup for Your House

A homeowner maintenance inspection is a complete evaluation of a home you already own. It's designed to catch small problems early, prioritize maintenance and help you plan for future repairs before they turn into emergencies.

Over time, roofs wear, caulk and sealants fail, gutters clog, water heaters age and crawl spaces collect moisture. Most of these issues develop slowly and quietly, which is why many homeowners don't notice them until there's damage.

Mark Schumacher inspects the home top to bottom and gives you a clear picture of what needs attention now, what to watch and what to budget for in the coming years.

Benefits of Regular Inspections

Small Fixes Now, Fewer Big Bills Later

A clogged gutter can lead to foundation moisture. A failing seal around a tub can rot a subfloor. A crawl space vapor barrier that's been torn for years can feed mold and wood rot.

Mark's maintenance inspection identifies these issues while they're still simple to fix. Many homeowners schedule one every few years, after buying an older home or before major renovations.

It's also a great option for homeowners who have lived in a house for many years and never had it professionally inspected.

  • Exterior sealants, siding & trim
  • Foundation & crawl space moisture

  • Plumbing leaks & water heater age
  • HVAC condition, filters & drainage
  • Attic ventilation & insulation

Homeowner Maintenance Inspection FAQ

How often should I have my home inspected?

Many homeowners schedule a maintenance inspection every few years, or sooner for older homes or after major weather events.

Is this the same as a buyer's inspection?

It covers the same systems, but the focus is on maintenance priorities and planning rather than purchase negotiations.

Can I ask Mark questions about projects I'm planning?

Yes. Mark's construction background makes him a great resource for understanding how planned projects may affect your home.

Can you inspect just one area?

Yes. If you're concerned about a specific system, our focused home systems inspections may be a better fit.
