Northern Virginia Home Inspections, Inc.
Keeping Your Family SafeBecause we really care about our future home owners, we've included this special information about an often overlooked safety issue.
Besides concern over smoke detectors, safe wiring and other potential "home system" hazards, check the fire escape paths.
The Universal Building Code requires that every living area have at least two means of escape. This means a door and a window.
The window must be of adequate size and you must be able to open it without tools!
While no one plans to have a fire, these things should be given attention before an accident occurs.
Northern Virginia Home Inspections, Inc. will check this and many other potential safety hazards during a basic inspection. We also offer radon testing, water coliform bacteria testing and water lead testing. We want your family to be confident, comfortable and happy!
