HAWKEYE HOME INSPECTIONS INC

They found that the garbage disposal needed minor tweaking to work and that the down draft fan for the range was not vented to the outside. they found old water damage in the attic that was not a problem and water damage under one of the bathrooms. They missed quite a few things that they should have found. I found them over the next 4 months. They did not check the electric system, thus missing at least 2 blatant major code violations that were created by the seller. They only entered and inspected the attic from the garage side, thus they missed possible water damage at the other end of the room as well as the 2 improperly vented bathroom fans. Because they did not look around in the far side of the attic, they also missed that an additional wall had been placed in the home so as to make 1 bathroom 2 (this was discovered by me when replacing a bathroom fan and noticing that the wall had no top plate) They were nice people and the inspection at the time seemed well done and was cheaper than the other places I called, but just the electrical code violation repairs alone will cost me at least 10 times what they charged for their inspection.
