A professional association for home inspectors that publishes standards of practice and consumer information about home inspections.
The American Society of Home Inspectors, known as ASHI, describes itself as a professional association for home inspectors and publishes standards of practice and consumer information. Home inspection reports sometimes mention fences, gates and pool barriers as items to watch or repair. Owners in Nashville buying or selling a home may see those notes and wonder what they mean and what to do next.
We are an independent company and are not part of ASHI. When an inspection report mentions a leaning fence, a rotted post or a gate that does not latch, we can look at the item, explain what we see and give a written scope for repair. We do not perform inspections, and we encourage you to read the report and ask your inspector about anything that is unclear.
