This preview shows the report used by buyer's agents and listing agents, including clearly marked guidance for factual inspection conversations.
The paired original inspection is redacted. The ClearPath preview uses only source-bound demo findings and images from that same approved source.
About this preview
This privacy-safe demo reorganizes documented findings into plain English, source pages, practical next questions, and planning context. It does not replace the original inspection or add a diagnosis.
How to read it
Status guide
Address the safety question promptly with the appropriate professional.
Cause, extent, or material scope needs clarification.
Use the source wording to plan timing or watch the condition.
A more bounded correction that may be ready for a local scope.
Important inspection limitations
These are source-bound examples from the paired redacted inspection.
House wrap was not visible in one small exposed area. The inspector could not see behind the remaining siding and noted that wrap may exist elsewhere.

Dollar ranges are broad planning allowances for early discussion and budgeting—not property-specific quotes.

“Let’s separate the straightforward corrections from anything that needs diagnosis or a clearer professional scope first.”
What the inspector documented, why it matters, and which question comes next.
Do not assumeThe cause, full extent, code status, repair method, or final cost unless the source or professional establishes it.
Original inspection item 2.1.1 · page 7
Moisture staining was observed on the wood roof deck under the left-side covered porch. The source report called this area OSB roof sheathing. OSB is a wood-panel material, and roof sheathing or roof decking is the wood layer beneath the roof covering. The inspector noted that the staining may reflect a past or ongoing roof leak, although the roof covering above appeared to be in good condition.
If moisture is still entering, continued wetting can damage the wood roof deck or nearby framing. The report does not identify the source or confirm whether the condition is active.
The staining alone does not prove an active leak, concealed damage, or the need for full roof replacement.
Page 7
Ask for roof-leak and repair history. Have a qualified roofer inspect the stained area and the roof details above it before deciding on repair scope.
Diagnostic visit: $150–$400. Repair cost cannot be estimated until the source and extent are confirmed.
The report documents staining, but not the timing or source. Treat this as a question that needs verification rather than a confirmed active leak. Diagnosis should come before pricing.
Original inspection item 8.4.2 · page 25
The cover plate on a living-room electrical receptacle is loose and sits away from the wall.
A cracked or loose plate can expose gaps around energized components and can worsen if pulled by a plugged-in cord.
This photo does not automatically show damaged wiring, a failed outlet, or a major electrical problem.
Page 25
With power handled safely, secure or replace the plate. If the receptacle moves in the box or is damaged, use an electrician.
Higher-confidence general range · Simple cover correction $10–$100; electrician service call commonly $150–$350.
Present this as a small, confirmed correction. Do not use the separate GFCI photos or closet-light photos for this finding; the source image on page 25 is an exact match.
Original inspection item 8.6.1 · page 25
The inspector tested receptacles in the kitchen and laundry and reported missing GFCI protection in some areas.
This is a shock-safety correction, particularly where electricity may contact water.
A missing GFCI does not mean the receptacle is currently shorting, and the report does not determine broader code compliance.
Page 25
Have an electrician test the circuit and install the appropriate device or upstream protection.
Medium-confidence general range · Rough planning $150–$600; circuit conditions and number of locations can change cost.
Explain the observed condition first. Keep any possible cause separate from what the report actually confirms, and avoid treating a planning range as a quote.

The final page reorganizes the complete report into the decisions and conversations that may need attention first.
Water source beneath air handler; roof-deck moisture staining; damaged duct insulation.
Missing GFCI protection; smoke-alarm coverage; oven anti-tip restraint.
Loose outlet cover; door weather seal; storm-door closer; damaged skirting.
Diagnose unknown water sources before pricing and request targeted professional scopes.
