"Dwight was professional and friendly from the moment he arrived to do a home inspection for us. What stood out and was complimented by our realtor as well was the fact he brought in folding chairs for us to sit in because the house was empty. Even our realtor said she had never had an inspector do that and we were blown away by the thoughtfulness and customer service that showed. Dwight was extremely thorough and made sure to communicate prior to starting, during, and after the inspection. He went beyond explaining recommendations and elaborated in a way I could understand. He was patient while answering questions and overall an absolute pleasure to work with. Our report was emailed in just a couple hours following the inspection. I highly recommend A House on a Rock and thank Dwight for the wonderful experience he provided. "

This is a pile of bat poop in the attic. Bat poop is toxic, and this is going to be an expensive clean-up job.
Looks like the homeowner cut all the trusses in the attic to make room for storage. Unfortunately, those were all structurally important components that they cut.
Typical "flip" plumbing, There is no trap which allows sewer gasses into the home. Plus, even if there was a trap, there was no vent, so it may have siphoned the water out of the trap.
This is an improvised "skylight" that was leaking into the attic

"Terrible work, terribly overpriced. Tech broke my vent cover on installation leaving a large hole and the cage wasn't even flush with the wall then just left without telling me they had damaged my property. Took 3 calls to get someone to call me back and repair the poor work and no one ever apologized or offered a discount. Communication is also awful. Never gave advanced notice of when the tech would show up and she then came on a different day than what she had previously said and acted annoyed that I wasn't at home. To make it all worse there were never any mice even caught and I suspect I was scammed and told that droppings from prior work last year were fresh. The company didn't honor their warranty from work done last year because it was a different franchise owner and the new franchise charged an outrageous amount. Now I'm having difficulty getting through to cancel the monthly service I don't need because I don't even have mice. Never use them."

"Wayne was very responsive and patient, and handled the entire project very well. His team did good work too, and in a few instances where we saw minor flaws, Wayne made sure that his team fixed them promptly. He even went above and beyond what he was contracted to do, such as by helping us return a vanity to Home Depot, and installing a new toilet valve in another bathroom when he noticed that it was broken. While the total cost was a few thousand dollars higher than what other companies quoted, Wayne's responsiveness made up for it."

FAQs for complete home inspection projects in Richmond, VA

An electrical inspection usually takes one to two hours. During the inspection, your electrician will follow the National Electrical Code (NEC) to ensure your home is safe and up to legal safety standards. They'll check your electrical system, including wires, appliances, meter box, panel, circuit breakers, and more.

Afterward, you'll receive a detailed checklist of everything they examined, along with a report highlighting any urgent issues—often with photos. They might also offer tips on how to save energy and improve your system's efficiency.

Regular electrical inspections protect your home and family by ensuring that every part of your electrical system operates safely. Scheduling inspections reduces the risk of electrical fires and cuts high insurance premiums by detecting problems early. Inspections defend against hidden system failures and maintain your property’s overall value, making them an essential part of home maintenance.

Full home electrical inspections are essential when buying a new home because every wiring detail must be evaluated. If you are not purchasing a home and have no significant concerns, a basic safety inspection is sufficient. However, for older properties or homes that have not been inspected for a long time, a comprehensive inspection is required to detect hidden issues and ensure complete safety.
