Maine Coalition of
Home Inspection Professionals
Buying a house can be a time of great anxiety and stress. Whether this is your first home or you have been down this road before, it is, perhaps, the single largest investment you will ever make. Unfortunately, most people know very little about all of the eight major component systems that make up a home. These systems include plumbing,
electrical, structural, heating and air conditioning, kitchen, exterior, interior and the basement.
A home inspection professional who is a member of the Maine Coalition
of Home Inspection Professionals (MeCHIPs), has met its membership
requirements and is bound to abide by the Bylaws,
Standards of Practice
and Code of Ethics of the organization. In the absence of state
licensing laws regulating home inspectors in Maine, hiring a MeCHIPs
professional to perform your home inspection assures you of receiving
quality home inspection services from a qualified individual.
