Welcome to Our Interior Gallery

The inspection of the interior includes windows, doors, walls, ceilings, and stairways. Obstructions, such as furniture and personal property tend to make out job a bit more difficult. We will look for evience of roof leaks, check condition of windows and  doors, and verify that stairways are proper.  Much of  what we find at the interior may already be apparent to you.  I recommend that you discuss anything that you see with your inspector.

Some Common Issues Found in Interiors of Homes

Ceilings

Structure

Structure

Stains are common around skylights and can be difficult to detect. 

Structure

Structure

Structure

Difficult to tell from this image, but the roof framing has been improperly modified. Pitched roofs typically rely on the rafters and ceiling joists to create a triangle for structural stability. In this case, there are no ceiling joists and the exterior walls are being pushed out.

Windows

Structure

Windows

Windows should provide natural light, ventilation, and emergency egress.  Windows in older homes often cannot be easily used to escape from a building.  While corrections are not necessarily required, modifying openings will help to increase safety.  

Stairs

Winders

Windows

Stair treads and risers should be uniform.  There should be no more than a 3/8" variation between the larges and smallest.  

Winders

Winders

Winders

Winders (triangular/tapered treads) should not taper to narrower than 6" as this can result in falls & injury.

Walls

Winders

Winders

Large, bulky furniture placed against uninsulated exterior walls can restrict airflow resulting in ick. Providing space between furniture and an exterior wall will allow free airflow, which will help to keep moisture from condensing on the wall surface.
