Starting one of my old vlogs, I'm gonna start it off with showing you how I set up my truck, but we got a big day actually We got a big day. We have a brand new house 2019 it's a not too big like 22 under square to feet 2500 square feet I don't remember and then I have a 6,000 square footer I'm gonna be in Katie and then I'm gonna go all the way over to Parallel and so lots of driving and I gotta keep my keep my Timeline's tight today We I'm gonna be but I got it pretty good. We got our training on every single one and there'll be three men on each one Today's just how it worked out normally you would have a single man for the 2,000 square foot and a maybe a team of two for the 6,000 square foot But we like to have the training to go in there and help us out for the most part But he's getting close and you might be in the field real soon too as well So this is how I set up my truck I always like to put my drone on the bottom here get my toolbox my backpack and then I keep my Keep my fleaers back there Flea moisture meter and whatnot the more expensive stuff back there So bring it all in at once. It's it's pretty tight in the truck. All right, let's head over to Katie and see what we're gonna Go find let's go check it out. Okay, so I lied. It's 2700 square feet and I am way deep into Katie So I got some work ahead of me But I'll do my best to video anything we find so you can kind of get an idea what we find on new builds and then Hop in my truck and hold my butt down into parallel and when I'm in parallel And I mean I'm deep into parallel and so I got some miles in front of me today Which is a one thing people forget to understand about home inspections? I'd say 50% of the job is just driving so if you are looking to become a home inspector Make sure that you understand that you drive a lot a lot. All right cool. Let's go knock this one out All right, so every time I'm on the roof and I see Coffee and over overflowing from the shingles like here and right here. I like to pick up the cop to see what's underneath Sure enough You take it off you can see it expose fastener underneath Yeah, so what are the most common finds that we find on the roof right there is Exposed fasteners they get they get really really fast and they'll start slam in the nails out and They'll miss the starter strip or whether the nails are designated to go they get a little sloppy and they'll The shingles won't lay over the nails properly. So what what it ends up being is a penetration point and what they do is just go over there and caulk it and Caulking will only last like four or five years and eventually it will cause a roof leak So it won't be an actual 20-year roof Most of the time they only last 18, but you know how it goes all right. Let's go see what else we're gonna find So you can see this roof is a little bit steeper than normal and where we like to stick to is the ridges and valleys and That's the safest spot. Don't do what James is doing right now. That is completely against what I was saying But yeah, you stick to ridges and valleys and what Warren is doing is it's a hard to see area And you always want to make sure you look down in those hard to see areas because sometimes we'll look in there And there will actually be missing sighting all together Wrapping up on the outside here. We found all kinds of little things about remember It is okay on a new bill to obsess about the little things because the little things can lead to issues down the line So we found some shingle damage we found some flashing lifting from the ground So that's the reason why we walk close and then wide because on our wide pass we notice that we miss a missing flashing From the ground we sound mortar improvement Post-tension cables expose a leaky faucet hose there and Some caulking improvement around windows and then we even found a window that has some scratches across it We even write up those two as well because we like to treat them as like a brand new car Which you complain about scratches on your brand new car? You should about your house two as well. So you want to try to talk about all these items whenever you're doing it All right, let's go into the attic and see what we're gonna see in there and Keep on moving. Okay, in the attic space pretty clean got a few minor things The blower motor is out of balance the coil housing is leaking water The paint is holding water and we believe it's because it's so dirty a lot of times what they do is when they're Install on sheet rock and stuff they run These units and they get really clogged up and then we also have a mechanical exhaust vent separated over there I know I'm kind of cruising through these ones, but we got to keep our timelines But I still want to show you everything we're doing today also The we had a previous water leak over here. I got the gardener Just spray the roof with the water hose and so we're gonna shoot it with the thermal skin We'll clever Chris. All right, let's do this nice spot man We're and tell everyone what I missed Portland support This is an example of work I compared it to To right here. We only have one support running down supposed to be every Or 80 or 40 Noise noise spot so that a gardener really helped us out so you check this out Let me see if I can pull this off. There you go look at that You sprayed the water on the roof for us just to To see if I can the roof is still leaking and you can kind of see here where it's leaking in the corner And what a nice guy. Yeah, make sure to emulate rain on the roof for us so we can find the water leak for the clients Okay, on the inside of this one. It's pretty clean We got a little bit of just paint defects a little bit of hardware loose You can see even like a hardware damage right here on the door So a lot of minor stuff we still added on the report. Did we get any loose outlets loose outlets? Oh You got a loose outlet in the kitchen. So you know, I'd say that all these finds are pretty common for a new build So let's get something to eat and then head all the way down to Parallel and get that 6,000 square foot house All right showed up to the 6,000 square footer It's gonna need some work before I even walk in you can already tell look the trees up there Going into the socket area, but what actually tips you off the most before you even step inside Is all their repair stuff is sitting outside and they have a Kills it's there to kill mold and stuff so We got to keep our eyes open and try to find all this stuff and see what we're gonna run into All right, we got the we got most of this house knocked out I'm not gonna be able to cover everything there's Josh back there doing a cameo So we got a little bit of everything we got old old water heaters roof leagues Copper gas line over there, but you know It's too much to vlog and keep our time on track, but I just want to let you know Thanks for following us and if you like these types of videos, please hit that like and subscribe button below and Catch us on the next one.
