What we're licensed and certified to do in Ohio
What we watch for in Ohio
- •Much of the Ohio Valley region falls within EPA Radon Zones 1 and 2, where elevated indoor radon is common - we recommend radon measurement on most transactions.
- •Older housing stock is common across the region, so aging electrical, plumbing, and roofing systems are frequent findings that benefit from an experienced eye.
- •Humid summers raise the likelihood of moisture intrusion and mold growth, which is why mold assessment and thermal imaging are valuable add-ons to a standard inspection.
- •Preferred Inspections is licensed in Ohio for residential home inspection, radon measurement, and WDO/WDI assessments, so each of these can be handled in a single coordinated visit.
