Home Inspection Services and Testing: 35 Years’ Experience in Residential Construction. Since 1997 I have been inspecting homes including evaluating the structure, plumbing, heating, electrical & drainage systems, as well as safety features and items that could diminish your investment. I provide my clients with the necessary information on the condition of the home so they can make an informed decision regarding their purchase. My home inspections typically range from 3-5 hours long depending on the size of the house and you have the choice of following along as I perform the inspection or meeting me at the end for a recap. Within 12 hours of the inspection you'll have a detailed written report with photos emailed to you. Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Unlike most professionals, you probably won't meet me until after you hire me. Different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods and pricing. A thorough home inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector’s knowledge and effort. Your best interest is my main concern. If you permit me to inspect your home, I guarantee that I will give you my very best. Experience Matters! Whether you are preparing your house for sale, buying an existing house, or looking to build a new home, House and Home Inspections can help! I am an affiliate member of GNIAR, the Greater Northwest Indiana Association of Realtors, and have a Supra e-KEY. I am also a member of InterNACHI, the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors.
"Todd was an ace and went above and beyond in all areas. He performed a new home inspection for a home I'm purchasing. The home is in a rural area and even though the GPS shows the address on a different street than the driveway is on... he arrived to the property before me and without help. Throughout the inspection he was extremely detailed, climbing in, above and below in some areas that even the current homeowner had never been in. His feedback on site was excellent as was the detailed report I received a few hours after the on site inspection. I would absolutely work with Todd again."

Absolutely Dry serves residential and commercial property owners who have experienced a disaster by providing the necessary emergency service damage control and follow-up repairs. We offer a wide range of services including, but not limited to the following:
"NEVER hire this company!!! I rated them F, because there is not lower rating to choose from. I had a fire in a barn with a huge amount of property in it. I hired Absolutely Dry to take care of the clean-up and provide 2 inventories (for my insurance company) of the items that were: 1. Salvageable – Items they took to their shop to be cleaned & later returned. 2. Non-Salvageable – Items that they deemed not salvageable. These were items the insurance company was to pay the “replacement value” of; regardless of whether to not I kept them. They were supposed to provide the above lists and pictures of every item they touched. The list of Non-Salvageable items was over 1,300 items long. The list of Salvageable items was over 300 items long. Thus, there were over 1,600 items they touched, according to their inventories. They gave me copies of about 1,300 pictures, which is about 300 short of the total Items. They provided no cross reference of the photos to the items on the list. Making the photos totally useless, because there was no way to determine what photos related to what items. Also, there were multiple photos of some items; therefore, there is no way they even provided photos of all the 1,600 items, even if I tried to cross reference them. I later noticed that they missed a leather couch, refrigerator, 4 mattresses/box springs, and other less significant items from the list. If they missed such obvious items, there is no way I can rely on their list being complete. When I objected, they sent me a hand-written list and expected me to figure out what else was missed and refused to help beyond that, in any way. When they 1st started, it was extremely cold; so, they brought in a large diesel heater to heat up the barn and start getting things dried. However, they never even turned it on. When they brought in the heater, they backed it into the yard in the snow (without bothering to check what was under the snow) and broke a stained-glass stepping-stone that I was promised I would be reimbursed for. They now refuse to pay for it. There was a Sycle in the barn that was over 100 years old, with all the parts. I payed between $60 & $100 for it. One night after they were gone for the day, I placed the Sycle on their table for processing. A month later, I found it outside, under a tarp, in the mud, with the handle broken and one of the attachments missing. The handle was the most valuable part of it. They refuse to pay for it also. To be honest, they never promised to pay for it, but I think it is fair that they do, because of their completely negligent treatment of this item. I tried to get this resolve with the help of the BBB, but they responded with lies. Thus, I got nowhere."

Lead testing and removal services FAQs
Lead paint removal costs about $3,600, ranging from $1,500 to $5,800, depending on several factors, such as square footage, removal method, and its location in your home. Keep in mind that lead paint removal costs $8 to $17 per square foot, ensuring a permanent and maintenance-free fix.
Additional cost factors for lead paint removal include:
Location
Materials and equipment needed
Disposal method
Accessibility
Surface types
Repairs needed
Labor
Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:
Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot
Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project
Encapsulation: $4 per square foot
Enclosure: $10 per square foot
Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot
Professional testing for lead paint costs about $300, ranging from about $250 to $700, depending on the square footage, accessibility, and location. However, testing for lead paint with a DIY home-testing kit costs about $25, but doesn’t guarantee accurate results. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends using a lead test kit that complies with the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, which has strict criteria for ensuring a more accurate reading.
Common home surfaces to test for lead include:
Walls
Windows
Doors
Molding and trim
Railings
A professional lead paint removal company should remove any lead-based paint from your home. You should not remove or paint over it yourself because handling lead-based paint poses health risks, according to the EPA. Professionals trained and certified to handle lead-based paint abatement use specialized equipment like HEPA vacuums and methods like chemical stripping and abrasive blasting to remove paint and particles as safely as possible. They are also trained on how to properly dispose of lead-based paint material.
You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.
What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?
Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?
How do you test for lead paint?
What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?
What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?
Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?
