THE HOUSE FILES

Home Safety Defects

Real safety conditions photographed during home inspections—what they look like, why they matter, and what should be corrected.

These case files are first-hand inspection observations, not a substitute for working alarms or a qualified professional.

Smoke alarms

Missing, damaged, or otherwise non-working smoke-alarm protection.

Falls and tip hazards

Handrails and range anti-tip hardware that should keep people from falling.

Need these safety items inspected?

These files help you recognize conditions. They cannot determine the condition of a specific property. Schedule a home inspection if you need the systems evaluated on site.
