ā€‹šŸ’§ Don't Get Capped Out! 🚫

​Homeowners, a quick heads-up from your friendly home inspector! šŸ•µļø


​Did you know that sometimes sellers may try to hide small water leaks by putting decorative or protective valve caps on things like exterior hose bibs, boiler drains, or even interior supply stops?

​While caps are often used legitimately, I've seen them used to temporarily conceal a slow drip.

​If a valve cap is covering up a problem, you won't see the evidence until the cap comes off! This is why a thorough home inspection is key—we look beneath the surface to protect your investment.

​Schedule your inspection today! A small leak can become a big problem fast.
