About inspections in Ferndale

Home inspections in Ferndale, Michigan.

Ferndale's housing stock is one of the most distinctive in Metro Detroit. The city is defined by 1920s and 1930s bungalows — craftsman-style homes with original hardwood, plaster walls, and the kind of character that draws buyers in. But charm comes with age, and many of these homes still carry original knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized supply lines, and clay sewer laterals that deserve a careful look before closing.

Ferndale has also seen a wave of renovations and additions over the past decade. Gio pays close attention to permitted vs. unpermitted work — flip-quality finishes can mask structural or mechanical shortcuts that only show up during a thorough inspection.

What we commonly find in Ferndale homes

  • Knob-and-tube wiring hidden behind renovation finishes
  • Clay sewer laterals original to 1920s–30s construction
  • Plaster wall cracks indicating minor settlement in older foundations
  • Unpermitted additions with improper header or footing details
