Grounds
|
The grounds
surrounding the home will include items such as grading for drainage,
patios, landscaping (retaining walls and other alterations to the natural
flow of the property), fences, trees and bushes which may have an effect on
the home and all other items as they relate to the exterior of the house.
Patios and surrounding soil should be pitched away from the h ouse
to keep water from lying against the foundation, penetrating the basement,
or possibly undermine the footings of a slab home. Trees and bushes need to
be kept away from the buildings components to prevent wear, damage or
present a possible safety hazard. Other items such as retaining walls and
fences are often overlooked by potential homebuyers but can be extremely
costly to repair or replace. The general placement of the home on the
property is closely examined as it relates to slopes and hills, which could
direct high volumes of water towards the home in more severe weather. The
experience with the geographical location of your new home that your
professional inspector has can be important as it relates to flooding and
high water tables which can be an unpleasant surprise. |
