Take Note:
A home inspection is generalized in scope; it is not a substitute for specialized in-depth analysis of a specific trade, component, or system. Your home inspector may (and probably does) have specialized training, education, and experience in a number of construction related fields. State, Federal, and recognized professional trade organizations prohibit the home inspector from acting, for example, as a termite inspector. This is not to say that he cannot report his observations. For example, he could write, "observed insect related damage" and that he "recommends further investigation by a licensed pest reporting company". The same is true for structural issues and observations. Your inspector may observe and report on faulty structural conditions but he should not be acting as a licensed Civil Engineer unless of course he happens to be one.
