Derek Vigstol, your Rum River Home Inspector, is a licensed master electrician in Minnesota and prides himself in ensuring your home is safe and sound.  His personal mission is to educate and inform you of all aspects of your home.  Your safety is our #1 concern.  As a master electrician, Derek knows the ins and outs of your electrical system and is uniquely qualified to inspect the most dangerous system in your home.

A typical MN home Inspection will cover all major components of your home including the exterior, garage, interior areas, plumbing, heating and A/C, and of course the electrical.  The inspection will start outside by inspecting the siding, roof, landscaping, gutters, driveway, site layout and drainage, foundation (if visible) and so on.  Derek then checks the garage for electrical and structural defects.  The home inspection then progresses inside.  Derek is very meticulous and methodical during the inspection to ensure that he doesn't miss anything.  He starts in the attic and works down to the basement, finishing with a complete inspection of all electrical components.  Rum River Home Inspections adheres to the InterNACHI Standards of Practice until it comes to the electrical system where Derek goes above and beyond as the Standards of Practice don't go far enough to ensure your safety.

While Derek can perform the inspection alone, he prefers to have you there to ask questions and see firsthand everything he finds.  A Rum River Home Inspection is an educational experience not to be missed.  How often do you have the opportunity  to walk through your home with an expert at your side to explain everything to you and answer any questions you may have? 

A MN home inspection by Rum River Home Inspections typically takes between 3-5 hours depending on the size of the home.  You are then given an easy to read, quality report in .pdf format by e-mail.  Your report is a comprehensive summary of the property and allows you to negotiate effectively or cancel the purchase agreement if it comes to that.  The report is full of pictures that explain everything that was found during the inspection.  Our reporting software is fully customizable to your home so that your report is full of everything you want and nothing you don't.  Some inspectors think their clients will be impressed by 50-75 page reports, but if half of the report is just blank space and empty check boxes, its just a waste of paper.

MN home inspectors are not currently licensed and required to take continuing education.  As a member of InterNachi, Derek is required to take 24 hours of continuing education per year on top of his electrical education requirements.  Many local associations for MN home inspectors only base their membership on paying dues, InterNACHI inspectors must be continually improving as a condition of membership.

Hire a certified InterNACHI MN home inspector and you can rest assured that you have hired the best, most professional, quality home inspector available.  Call Derek today and get your individual home inspection quote.
