WHY SCHEDULE AN ANNUAL HOME INSPECTION?
Routine repairs and annual home maintenance are, understandably, sometimes overlooked by homeowners with busy lives. Repairs and maintenance items that are “out of sight and out of mind” can easily be forgotten by even the most diligent homeowner. Keep in mind, a lot can happen to your home in one years time. These issues can become costly, unexpected repairs down the road and even turn into larger and more serious issues if neglected. An annual home maintenance inspection will alleviate this fear of the unknown and help prevent major financial difficulties caused by unexpected repairs in the future. A simple concept known as “preventative maintenance.” Order an annual home maintenance inspection today and get started on your yearly, annual home maintenance plan with Certified Home Inspections.
