I use Adwords Express.. It is easy enough for me and I get a few inspections a month from it.

The test is very easy to pass.

Nice ! Thanks .

It's just wood checking.

What do you like about it. Do you do inspections on tablet or do all back at office.

I have a Microsoft surface which runs windows and an iPad. Trying to see which will suite my needs best. I appreciate any and all feedback. As you all know the software is a big purchase I want to make sure I make the correct decision.

How does it get the reports out? Printed? PDF? Email. I know there is a cloud service. How does that tie into the whole operation or is that strictly for storing reports and interoperability between mobile devices and pcs.

Thanks

Do you do inspections on tablet or do all back at office.

At the office

PDF..Email!
I don't use the cloud service . I do all report writing at the office.

I like Home Inspector Pro...HIP!
Very easy to use and very nice looking reports.

Dom.

Yep!

“A home inspection is a high-liability, in-depth, multi-disciplined technical analysis of the home conducted under adverse circumstances in front of a demanding audience, requiring the generation of an incredibly detailed written report prepared in an unrealistically short time frame for an inconceivably low fee.”

Anywhere there is water?

Yes! You are inspecting the plumbing.

Yes you can, but you can't do the plumbing repairs.

IMHO they are the same.

Corrosion noted at the ###. Recommend the corrosion be removed and using dielectric unions where dissimilar metals are joined (i.e. copper to galvanized) as to avoid this type of corrosion.

1x6 boards instead of OSB is just fine if not better.
