What Do Restoration Assessments Include?


Most inspection companies don’t assess historic buildings. Buildings 100 years of age and older were constructed with techniques and mechanics that most people have never seen. Edwin, however, lives in a 200+ year-old-home and understands how to evaluate the condition of historic homes and buildings.

Our restoration assessments are comprehensive and thorough, inspecting the following:

  • Structural integrity of the building (foundation, floors, walls, roof, overhangs, exterior, windows)
  • Electrical
  • Plumbing
  • Well
  • Water quality
  • Propane, Gas, and Oil
  • Heating
  • Cooling
  • Decks, Patios, Entrances

Once the assessment is complete, Chester County Home Inspections issues a report that will help owners and prospective buyers to determine the feasibility of restoring the building. It includes an estimate based on experience of the ballpark costs of restoration.
