Disclosed by **0 of 7** home inspectors below ### Payment schedule Payments should follow finished stages of work, never get ahead of it. Disclosed by **0 of 7** home inspectors below ### Warranty: what kind and how long Structural, materials, equipment and workmanship warranties are different things.
