Buffalo Home Inspector John Villella, of All Pro Home Inspection, talks about if homeowners should attempt a repair or use a professional to do it right.

John Villella, owner of All Pro Home Inspection cautions homeowners from completing repairs on their own.  It is always recommended that the homeowner only attempt repairs if they have the technical knowledge and tools to do the job properly.  All too often homeowners attempt to do repairs only to find themselves in a much worse position - even if they get the task completed. 

Many times the non-professional repairs are completed only to end up costing additional money or even continued deterioration or damage to the system or building component.  Plus, many repairs are not completed to provide proper safety to the occupants of the home.

Homeowners should considered contacting a professional home inspector for yearly home maintenance inspections.  This type of inspection covers all the major systems and building components.  The home maintenance inspection will provide you with a list of areas that may need maintenance or even a repair and the homeowner can use the professional home inspector for guidance for the type of repair is needed and who should be contacted for that type of repair.  Having this yearly checkup will be beneficial in a couple of ways.  First, major repair issues are controllable because of the yearly checkup and secondly, the home will remain in better condition, which retains the value of the home.

The home inspector will provide you with an unbiased property inspection report and the peace of mind that an contractor isn’t trying to sell a job if the contractor were to review the issue.  Having the yearly home maintenance inspection will also provide you with a list of honey do’s you can complete yourself and keep you well informed what areas should be completed by a professional.  Remember, the home inspector is there to provide you with information and not selling you a job.
