As the festive season approaches, there’s much excitement in the air. While you may be preoccupied with holiday shopping, planning, and decorations, one crucial item on your checklist should be a comprehensive home inspection. At MDHI, a 5-star rated, locally-owned Home Inspections service serving Greater Maryland, we understand the significance of ensuring your home’s safety during the busiest time of the year. Here’s why a pre-holiday home inspection is essential.
The Risks of Overlooking Inspections
Holiday decorations, both indoors and outdoors, pose potential hazards that could turn your festive season into a nightmare. Wiring issues, structural problems, or unseen damages can interfere with your holiday decorations and potentially compromise your safety.
Electrical Concerns
Overloaded outlets: Plugging in multiple holiday lights can strain your electrical system.
Damaged wiring: Old or damaged wires can be a fire hazard, especially if they’re hidden behind decorations.
Incorrectly rated breakers: Using appliances that draw more power than your circuit can handle can cause outages or fire risks.
Structural Weaknesses
Damaged roofing: Snow accumulation or hanging heavy decorations can exacerbate existing roofing issues.
Unstable railings or balconies: Increased foot traffic during the holidays can pose a risk if these structures are weak.
