Home Inspections in Morris County, NJ
Morris County home inspections are my specialty. I have inspected more than 2,040 homes in Morris County, and I have been performing inspections here since 1993 in these municipalities:
Boonton, Butler, Chatham, Chester, Denville, Dover, East Hanover, Florham Park, Hanover, Harding, Jefferson Township, Kinnelon, Lincoln Park, Long Hill, Madison, Mendham, Mine Hill, Montville, Morris Plains, Morris Township, Morristown, Mount Arlington, Mount Olive, Mountain Lakes, Netcong, Parsippany, Peapack-Gladstone, Pequannock, Randolph, Riverdale, Rockaway Borough, Rockaway Township, Roxbury, Victory Gardens, Washington Township, Wharton
Morris County is home to about half a million people, and its housing stock runs the entire range. I have inspected homes here that were two hundred years old and homes that were brand new. Styles, ages, layouts, and lot sizes vary enormously from one municipality to the next, and so do the problems I find.
Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that seeps up through the soil from the decay of rock deep within the earth. The EPA identifies it as a known human carcinogen and the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Morris County has a serious radon problem, and the numbers are not subtle: the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection places Morristown and Morris Township in Tier 1, its highest radon potential category, based on testing of 10,434 homes in which 24 percent returned concentrations at or above the EPA action level of 4 pCi/L. Nearly one in four. When you buy a home in Morris County, it is very important that your inspection include a radon measurement. Where levels come back elevated, mitigation systems are highly effective, and a qualified radon professional should evaluate the home to determine the full scope and cost of the work before the expiration of your inspection contingency.
When Michael performs your home inspection, he will do so using the knowledge he gained from having taught student home inspectors, along with what he has learned from thousands of home buying clients. You may be led to believe that all home inspectors are the same. Our clients often find that going out of my way to locate and explain problems leaves them in a far better position when it comes time to negotiate.
All those fix-it-and-flip-it home shows have encouraged many people who know little about home systems to perform renovations in the hope of making a small fortune. When I inspect a home like that, my goal is to protect your interest by showing you what is wrong, why it is wrong, what to do about it, and what happens if the problem is ignored.
