What
is Radon Gas?
Radon
is one of 92 naturally-occurring chemical
elements. Radon gas is constantly produced
by the radioactive decay of Uranium.
Radon is found in geological formations
throughout the United States and Canada.
Uranium decays to radium, which than decays
to radon gas.
Surgeon
General Health Advisory
Indoor radon
gas is a national health issue. Radon
gas in air may cause thousands of deaths
each year. Millions of homes have had
elevated radon levels. Homes should be
tested for radon and if elevated levels are
confirmed, the problem should be corrected.
Why
call Ameri-Search for this?
All of our inspectors are certified as
"radon measurement technicians" in
the State of NJ. Yearly
re-certification of all technicians is
required by the NJDEP Radon Section.
FEES:
$150 for one canister
test or $100 if test is added to a basic
home inspection.

Some examples of serious
hazards found upon actual home inspections.
|

|
A
hot water heater with defective flue pipe.
This is a severe health hazard due to the
presence of carbon monoxide. |
|

|
This
picture was taken in a crawl space of a
home. There is a leaking PVC drain pipe that
is located right above the furnace. |
|

|
Brick
chimney on roof has been severely damaged by
tree branches. This defect was partially
hidden by the tree branches. Major chimney
repair can be expected. |
|

|
Electrical
system defect. A dangerous safety hazard is
found behind the dead front cover of the
service panel. Every electric panel cover
will be removed during our standard
inspection. |
|
| Termite
Inspection Service: |
Termites,
carpenter
ants, carpenter bees, and some species
of beetles are the common
wood destroying insect pests that can
cause structural damage to houses if
left uncontrolled. A NJPA
"Credentialed Inspector"
will visually inspect all accessible
areas of the building for any evidence
of wood-destroying insects.
Evidence
may include wood damage or even just
signs of past treatment. All
accessible areas will be entered
including basements, crawl spaces, and
attics. Our standard "termite
report" report is accepted by all
mortgage companies including the FHA.
All
findings will be explained to you
during the inspection. If for any
reason non-accessible areas are
located, these areas will be noted on
a graph and additional recommendations
will be given. A "Wood
Destroying Insect Report" will be
issued at the time of the inspection.
FEES:
$75 for WID
Report Only or $50 if report is added
to a basic home inspection.
