Home ServicesAccess & Setup3MediumHome Inspector$ implied
Builder refuses to open or reseal attic access for inspection, and home inspectors decline to cut and reseal sealed attic accesses, leaving buyers unable to inspect the attic.
No existing solution addresses the coordination and liability gap between builders sealing attic accesses and inspectors needing to inspect them; inspectors lack a standard, safe method for cutting and resealing without risk or extra cost.
