We found gaps in your attic insulation. These seemingly minor openings cause heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, affecting comfort and increasing energy costs. Addressing these gaps by adding or repositioning insulation creates a consistent thermal barrier, maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures and improving energy efficiency, ultimately saving you money long-term.
The primary bedroom has a loose receptacle behind the cover, and the garage has a pegboard outlet connected to exposed Romex wire. These pose fire hazards, not just inconveniences. Loose receptacles risk electrical shock or fire. The bedroom receptacle needs tightening, while the garage setup requires further inspection and correction of the exposed Romex near the workspace.
Your exterior gutters are clogged with debris, blocking drainage and causing water overflow. This can damage your foundation, siding, and landscaping. Cleaning gutters ensures proper rainwater direction away from your home, preventing water damage. Regular maintenance preserves your home's structure and avoids costly future repairs.
The attic's dryer vent duct has kinks in multiple spots, creating safety and efficiency concerns. This can cause lint buildup, increasing fire risk while making your dryer work harder, shortening its lifespan and raising energy costs. Replacing or repairing the vent to create an unobstructed path improves safety and efficiency. Regular vent maintenance prevents fires and extends appliance life.
The second bathroom shows condensation buildup, indicating inadequate exhaust fan usage or function. Poor ventilation causes moisture accumulation, promoting mold growth and decreasing air quality. Ensure the exhaust fan works properly, is used during every shower, and is properly insulated in the attic. Addressing these ventilation issues maintains a healthy bathroom environment.
While many are functional and healthy, certain systems and components in your home show signs of minor issues, wear, or potential future problems. While not immediately dangerous, these areas require attention, monitoring, or minor repairs to maintain optimal function and safety.
