CRAWL-HOLE OR ENTRANCE TO UNDER FLOOR AREA TOO SMALL / COVER MISSING / AMISS: 
The crawl-hole is too small for easy access. The inspector will try to enter access openings which are smaller than building standards allow but in this particular case he apparently cannot. Every attempt will be made to gain access into the attic and underneath the building since these are critical areas and, if at all possible, must be inspected. If the inspector cannot gain access into the attic or under the building he/she can only view what is visible from whatever opening he/she can find (like vents and other openings). The inspector cannot review items he/she cannot see. It may be necessary to cut a larger opening into the crawl area. Sometimes this is easiest if it is cut in the floor of a closet, or the like, and thereafter installing a "trap door" over the opening. Should access be available at a later date, a reinspection should be called for. There may be a fee for this added service. Missing or damaged covers should be installed or repaired to prevent vermin from entering the under floor area. Contact a Handyman Service for assistance if needed.
