Fantastic home inspector… Reasonable and fair pricing… Thorough and honest

Property inspections are one of the most important steps to buying a home. We talked to Dale Dadds, owner of Shore Property Inspections, to learn how often you should get home inspections, some of the services he offers, and other tips for good home maintenance. Dale was voted a ‘Favorite Local Business Owner,’ making him the BEST person to talk to about home inspections on the Eastern Shore. 

It is important to get a home inspection when buying a home even if the home is new. “New construction inspections are a hot topic right now with the amount of new construction talking place on Kent Island. You need pre-drywall inspections, pre-settlement walk-through inspections and one-year builder warranty inspections,” Dale explained to me.

On the Eastern Shore, Dale says one of the areas he finds issue with the most is crawl spaces. There he often finds water damage, mold, and problems with insulation. This is one of the reasons Dale recommends getting a home inspection periodically.”‘Lots of people don’t go into their crawl space or their attic very often. It’s a good idea to have someone check your home every couple of years to get ahead of any potential problems.”

One interesting service Shore Property Inspection offers is “Recallchek.” Using Recallchek, Dale is able to quickly check the appliances in your home for recalls from a list of over 200 million recalls. Once found, these potentially dangerous or problematic appliances are repaired or replaced by the manufacturer.

Shore Property Inspections has multiple warranties on their inspections, including a five year leak warranty and a mold warranty, among others.
