What Toft reads, by report

Full home inspection

The report you get before you buy. Most inspection software makes one.

Usually

  • Each heating and cooling unit, water heater, electrical panel, roof, plumbing and foundation, as separate items
  • Brand, fuel, tank size, panel amps, pipe and roof materials
  • Where each item is, when the inspector says
  • What the inspector said about its condition

Sometimes

  • Model and serial numbers, when the inspector photographed the label and the photo is sharp
  • The year it was made, from the label or the serial number

Not from this report

  • An install year when the report gives only a range, like “6 to 10 years old”

Texas TREC inspection

The state form Texas inspectors use.

Usually

  • Each heating and cooling unit, with where it is and what it serves
  • Water heater fuel and size, panel locations, pipe materials
  • Each item the inspector marked deficient, and why

Sometimes

  • Brand, year, model and serial, from the label photos the inspector added

Not from this report

  • The roof’s age, which the form doesn’t ask

4-point inspection

The short report insurers ask for on older homes, mostly in Florida.

Usually

  • The ages of the roof, heating and cooling, water heater and electrical panel
  • Roof covering, panel brand and amps, wiring and pipe materials
  • Where the water heater is

Sometimes

  • The year each was last updated, when the inspector filled it in

Not from this report

  • Model and serial numbers. The photos are too small to read a label.

Wind mitigation inspection

The Florida form that can lower your insurance.

Usually

  • Roof covering and the year it went on

Sometimes

  • Roof shape, how the roof deck is fastened, and how the roof ties to the walls, as notes on your roof

Not from this report

  • Any equipment. The form doesn’t cover it.

Termite (WDI) report

The wood-destroying insect report many lenders ask for.

Usually

  • The report, kept in Documents with its date

Not from this report

  • Items for your home. The report covers insects, not equipment.

The label photo is what counts

Most reports never type out a model or serial number. Many inspectors photograph the label instead, and Toft reads it from the photo. A sharp label photo gives you the model, the serial and often the year it was made. If you’re booking an inspection, ask your inspector to photograph the label on each major appliance.

Missing something? Add it in a minute

Take a photo of the label yourself and Toft reads the brand, model and serial. For many brands, Toft also works out the year from the serial. Try the free appliance age lookup.
