Man so glad to watch without the harmonica. I love this guy.
Me too. Nice video.
Jim Lahey same I just switched to this version cause there’s no music
@@alecu739 Nice.
This guy is the Indiana Jones of home inspections
That's fantastic. He hates snakes too.
hijackn2890 he really is omg 😂😭😂😂
@@alecu739 Yep.
I don't know why I was so interested in this video but this guy was really good at capturing my attention. Jim showed me that in the future when I buy a house I want in inspector with passion for what they do and who cares about the little details. What a great, smart and professional guy! (Also that cracked foundation made me nervous and reminded me of why Inspectors are so important)
I can't stop watching either. :)
After watching this video, if I was buying a house, I would DEFINITELY hire this guy
Great to hear, Rich. We appreciate the feedback. If you're looking for a home inspector in your area, visit www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors
Very respectful inspector !! Loved the video
Thanks 👍
wow, amazingly detailed inspection.
Thank you. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the video.
Awesome. Now I can partially inspect things myself when I'm walking through a home.
The number one thing I got at least from watching this video, is that MOISTURE IS THE ENEMY!
That's a great idea! Moisture is the enemy. Water can bring life, and it can also destroy.
Colorado Springs native here. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching and commenting.
I'm here from the link in a previous video (with music) So I'll just go ahead and copy my comment. I got here by accident, I'm not interested in buying a house nor am I connected to the business in any way. But this was so interesting and a pleasure to listen and watch. Definitely faving this.
Thank you, Cassidy. You may be interested in more home inspection videos at www.nachi.org/tv/
This guy knows his stuff! I may be getting old but this was enjoyable to watch, he has a good presence for the camera.
He's the best.
I watched this video a second time and learned more in the second time since the music wasn't as loud. This is a great video, thank you InterNACHI for making this available to us and thankyou inspector Krumm
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, thank you. As a future first time home buyer, I found this extremely helpful.
Thank you for the feedback, Tim. As a first time homebuyer, you deserve the best home inspection. Be sure to check the home inspector's certification. They must be trained and certified by a nationally accredited school, such as the InterNACHI School (a home inspector school accredited by the U.S. Department of Education as a post secondary education institution). Visit www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors for finding a certified inspector.
Tim same thank you
@@alecu739 Ditto.
Ben, thanks for sharing all this great content. I'll be starting an inspection business this summer. It's going to be a side business initially, but it's something I hope to grow into my full-time job. I've been relying on a lot of your content for education and it's been very helpful.
Be sure to visit www.nachi.org/become-home-inspector.htm for 15 steps to success.
This man is the goal as a home inspector. Dang.
Agreed.
I watched this again, good video, and you always want to make sure you do your best for your cousin...errr...client :-)
Thank you for the feedback, Silent Hill.
Haha. If his only clients were his cousins, and he does 500 a year, you do the math…
@@morkeljakeson9438 Slip of the tongue. Jim does a ton of business for lots of folks in Colorado.
Thank you Jim, this is the best professional video on home inspections that I've ever seen.
Wow, thanks!
So professional, great video Jim.
Thanks 👍
Awesome thanks for letting us follow along.

I learned ao much from this video. Im thinking about becoming a Home Inspector.
Yes. Consider Step #1 at www.nachi.org/become-home-inspector.htm
Jim is such an encyclopedia.
Jim "Britannica" Krumm.
I love this video.
Me too. Thank you for your feedback.
Out of all the videos I've seen, you're the best. I'd love to meet you but. I'm in Northwest Indiana.
Come to our convention in October 2024 at www.nachi.org/convention24/. Jim will be there.
thank you very easy to follow :)
Thanks.
enjoyed it. good inspection.
Thank you, Joseph.
Very nice walk through!
Thanks for watching.
Hi! Great video. OSHA says 36” (3 rungs) of the ladder should extend above the landing platform, and the angle should be 4:1 ratio. For every four feet up, 1 foot out.
You're correct. Love that 3 foot over the gutter rule.
I need to know more about that tablet rig he's carrying.
Thank you for the comment.
Me to please
@@jaycordeiro3660 Me too.
Great video !
Thank you for watching.
Can I fly Jim out to Missouri to do an inspection for me lol. He is so trustworthy and professional!
Yes. Do it.
Thanks for the video =)
My pleasure!
Great vid great insoection
We agree.
Glad I'm not a home inspector, it's a lot of work. Good info.
Thanks 👍
good job man!
Thanks!
There's good inspectors and then there's Jim Krumm.
He's the best.
This mister it's good no doubt
Agreed. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video, great job, looking at getting into the industry, one question though, you mentioned you like to see the downspout extensions when you were at the front by the driveway, about 4:30 into the video, would you still want to see them going through the walkway like that? Or can they be underground etc? I wouldnt think youd want to have to step over them correct?
Underground is most aesthetically appealing.
He wears his hair like he does his inspections . Slick
Yes. Nice.
I wish I could just download this video into my brain
Thank you, Alec. I tried that, and it hurts.
I know you are not allowed to advise, but looking at the foundation I'd jack the joists/house up 1/8" from inside the crawl, pull the 2 courses block, re-lay the block straight, waterproof, backfill and grade appropriately. I had one with 5 courses where the whole wall almost caved in completely and this fix took care of it. Not cheap but probably the cheapest solution in the long run. Should the Radon be vented for "air in" on the opposite side of the foundation? Thanks for re-posting the video without the train whistle.
Good comments and questions, Brian. You ought to post you questions on the message board and share it with home inspectors. That’s the great value of the message board: getting answers from a ton of home inspectors. Please visit www.nachi.org/forum/f11/ and post that question and join the discussion on inspection topics. You may also want to consider finding a Mentor to help answer technical inspection questions at www.nachi.org/mentoring. You may also want to refer to the international code books online at codes.iccsafe.org/public/collections/I-Codes. For immediate assistance from other inspectors while you're onsite at an inspection job, you may want to request help at www.nachi.org/on-site-help.htm.
Thank for this "no music" version. the audio is a little uneven so I can hear you much better. I'm getting into real estate investing and this was a very informative video, thank you!
Thank you.
Interesting to see breaker panels are outside the door in colorado.
It's common. You may want to check out the other locations of panelboards described inside our article www.nachi.org/inspect-main-electric-panelboard.htm
Wooo thank God that music was killing me
Agreed. Unfortunately RUclips does not provide a way to replace a video. So, we made a duplicate video without the music at ruclips.net/video/pAQRoLKdTyI/видео.html
Awesome video. Thanks for the post. I was wondering if there is a website or something you can look up a well knowledgeable inspector vs the ones that give this profession a bad name. (Being politically correct here) Just another quick comment here. I'm glad to see he starts the oven to allow it to run for a few before testing CO but 800 ppm is truly unacceptable during operation. There is probably a calibration. Could be flame impingement.
Good comment, Michael. I'll pass it on to Jim, the inspector. And to find a certified home inspector, visit www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors. Certified Master Inspectors are at certifiedmasterinspector.org/
I just subscribed
Great to hear. For more videos, visit www.nachi.org/tv/
This guy is good lol
He's one of the best.
Currently doin my inspector lisence with internachi loke how this guy operates
Jim is the best.
Hey just a quick question I saw you use a flashlight. What is your everyday carry flashlight and what was your carry flashlight at the time of this video? (5 years after upload)
You can ask Jim at www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors/james-krumm-cmi-6629
I would like to converse with Jim about the Co information at 18:21. It seems a bit misleading. A gas stove is allowed to emit 800 ppm of Co but only as an Air Free reading. If our CO detectors picked up 800 PPM then people would be dropping like flies within and hour or two. I would like to know how he explains this to his clients. Consumer purchased CO Detectors read a Concentration level for the
ambient air in the room which is a much lower number and cannot be directly correlated with the "Air Free" reading.
Hello. Jim Krumm is available at cbhi.biz/ Regardless of what kind of ventilation system is installed for the rest of the house, an exhaust fan should be installed in the kitchen to exhaust moisture and odors associated with cooking. We have a good article about this at www.nachi.org/kitchen-exhaust.htm
really wish you could show us the attic :( but thanks for the video
Next time!
Do you guys by chance know what kind of tablet and what software Jim uses?
You can reach out to Jim at www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors/james-krumm-cmi-6629
Jim. Hello, regarding the roof ladder, I have had people In the company, have zero clue about the basic 3 ft over the roof level, you CANdidmount & remount the ladder SAFELY, 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for watching. I teach free online classes for inspectors at www.nachi.org/webinars. Free, online, and open to everyone.
that piticular garage door opener does not have force adjustment screws. It's electronic
Thanks, Liftmaster.
My man said piticular
😮 😯 😲 wow
Thank you, Alec.
What is the tablet thing he's holding???
Not sure. But going mobile with a tablet or ipad device will change everything in your home inspection business, including increasing speed, efficiency, and accuracy. It also help to reduce liability and mistakes.
Your inspection is very helpful with one fault, the back ground music. You can't be heard due to that music so a lot is missed.
Hi, Leslie. Agreed, but the loud music lasts only for several seconds by mistake. Sorry about that. Unfortunately, RUclips does not provide a way to replace a video. So, we made a duplicate video without the music at ruclips.net/video/pAQRoLKdTyI/видео.html
When did Harvey (The Wolf) Keitel get into home inspection??
Nice.
What is the process to becoming a home inspector through internachi ?
Visit www.nachi.org/
My house would get ripped apart!
Yep. Mine too. He's one of the best. and we believe every home should be inspected every year.
I have a question can I have a inspector inspect my brothers apartment it’s not suitable to live in and it’s a apartment
Yes.
I dont get what he means; we dont tell our clients what to do or how to make things better and yet he has so many recommendations.
I think he means that a primary job of a home inspector is to document observed defects. It's not really how to make repairs to housing issues.
Trevor Vallo It's becausd of subjectivity. One potential buyer might want to fix all the issues, another might fic some and another might just live with them and find a fix for them down the road.
I just switched half way threw to this version cause the music is gone
Too bad. It only lasts a few seconds. Unfortunately RUclips does not provide a way to replace a video. So, we made a duplicate video without the music at ruclips.net/video/pAQRoLKdTyI/видео.html
Thanks for great video very easy to learn from u but can i ask to contact u when i have any Q because i am new home inspector by mail or any contact thanks
Yes, sure. Visit www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors/james-krumm-cmi-6629
Hey it looked like that main panel needed a main disconnect. I’m just an apprentice tho
I realized that might just be code for where we work my mistake
No problem. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Can i come do a ride along with you JIM?
I bet, Yes.
What is the tablet he is using?
Motion F5 military grade tablet. A full Windows tablet. With the Turtle or Elegant bump case.
@@internachi Thank You!
The only music that bothered me was the 34:09 where it sounds like x files.
Agreed. Unfortunately RUclips does not provide a way to replace a video. So, we made a duplicate video without the music at ruclips.net/video/pAQRoLKdTyI/видео.html
I feel sorry for the plumber that needs to come and work on that water heater.
Me too.
they have drones for the roof inspections. much safer!
Yes.
And on 12.23 properly fasten your shoelaces... :)
Oh, good catch, Radiofun.
THANKS for fixing the silly music!!! Unfortunately ...I saw the link AFTER I watched the whole video. Why dont you take the music one down? so people ONLY see this one.
Hi, Farhan. Agreed. Sorry about that. The loud background music only lasts a few moments. Unfortunately, RUclips won't allow replacing a video, so we uploaded a quieter video at ruclips.net/video/pAQRoLKdTyI/видео.html. Thank you for watching our video.
Take the free online Master Class for Home Inspectors (which includes live coaching sessions with the instructor) by visiting www.nachi.org/masterclass.
And he did all that for only $240.
I believe Jim charges a bit more for his inspections. The greater the value, the high the fee (typically).
These so called home inspectors will never go into an attic access panel. They only do the easy stuff. It's amazing how much they miss in the electrical department.
Not true. InterNACHI certified home inspectors are the best trained at internachi.edu/
Word of advice: Use a better bungee cord than the cheap one you used in your video. Take word on this. If you have a bungee cord that has cheaply made metal hook or cheap elastic, well think about how much you value your life. Good day.
Thanks for the tip!
Really guys, there is no need for the infernal screetching harmonica!
Agreed. RUclips won't allow replacing a video, so we uploaded a new, QUIETER video at ruclips.net/video/pAQRoLKdTyI/видео.html
It's the house ghost playing the blues.
Radon is a fallacy..
That's a fallacy.
@@internachi Indeed, radon is a fallacy. Odorless, colorless, invisible gas. 🤣 Supposed to be a non invasive, visible inspection. Second only to cancer.. 😂
Home inspectors... you need to be held responsible, you need to be regulated your nothing more than used car salesmen. BTW make sure that gates closed can’t let rover out
Thanks for the feedback. I disagree about the car salesman comment. Home inspectors do not sell anything.
