New Florida Edition of InterNACHI's Home Maintenance Book

 
 

 

InterNACHI is pleased to announce the release of our new "Now That You've Had a Home Inspection in Florida" book for Florida homeowners.

The new full-color, 112-page "Now That You've Had a Home Inspection in Florida" is available for only $2.70 per book.

 

It includes all the great information found in the original Now That You've Had a Home Inspection, except that the emphasis is on the concerns unique to Florida, including its:

  • climate;
  • weather events;
  • landscape; and
  • housing features.
You'll find information about:
  • how to protect your home from hurricanes and related natural disasters;
  • why Wind Mitigation Inspections are important;
  • what you can expect from a 4-Point Inspection; and
  • a Service Life Expectancy Chart specific to homes in the Sunshine State.

Inspecting Brick Veneer

 
The common brick may be the best exterior cladding material ever devised. After all, what other cladding offers a 100-year warranty, is made from common green materials, is recyclable, requires low maintenance, provides excellent fire performance, and more?

 

Like any other building material, bricks will perform as intended only if installed as required by industry standards. The article's author has found a considerable number of masonry installation defects on every house he's inspected. The article details the most common ones.

 
Read the article about inspecting brick veneer.
