FAQ

Fair questions, straight answers.

Why wouldn't I just watch YouTube?

YouTube teaches repairs. It can't look at your photos and tell you which repair your house needs. We diagnose; then YouTube becomes useful.

Is this a home inspection?

No. Inspections are licensed, in-person, and cost $300–500. This is informational guidance for a specific problem — think "knowledgeable neighbor," not "licensed inspector." Our terms make this explicit.

What if you can't tell from photos?

We say so, tell you what additional photo or test would settle it, and you get one follow-up included. If it's genuinely undiagnosable remotely, we refund.

What about gas, electrical, or structural problems?

Anything dangerous gets an immediate "call a licensed pro" answer with guidance on who to call and what to say. We will never walk you into a repair that can hurt you.

Do you sell my info to contractors?

No. That's the whole point.

How fast do answers come back?

Written diagnosis within 24 hours of a complete submission. If your photos leave a genuine coin-flip, we'll ask for the tiebreaker shot rather than guess.

What does "one follow-up included" mean?

After you read your diagnosis, you get one more question — a clarification, a "what about this instead," a photo of the part you bought — answered at no charge.
