Erby Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Any here, or anyone know a good one? I've got a person moving to that area who wants an inspector that will let him attend the full inspection. Prefers computerized reports with digital photos included. I inspected his house here today. He's gonna be stuck for quite a bit of repairs. Had a realtor recommended checklist toting buckethead (did I say that right, Walter?) do the one here a couple of years ago without him attending. This is just one of the things that didn't make the buckethead's list of important things to note. Click to Enlarge 54.12 KB - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Whitmore Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 What's wrong with a ventless zero clearance fireplace? Plus, with the missing insulation and firestop, you can really heat things up that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erby Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Uh, that round brown thing in the middle of the picture is the damper the guy opened the few times he used the fireplace. You're right though, It can really transfer heat quicker without all that crappy insulation stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, sir, except that it sounds a little better if you drop the "g" on toting. I prefer "checklist-totin' buckethead." I say we round 'em all up and send 'em to Gitmo.

Erby Posted May 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Well, I'll be danged. Two whole days and, while the comments are appreciated, it seems there aren't any decent inspectors here from that area & know one even seems to know one. Bummer?

sepefrio Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 If you haven't found one I can get you one. I don't know any but I'm sure one of the guys in my local chapter does. Want me to ask?
