Stair and stair railing safety



These stairs have obviously been neglected for way too long. On top of that, they never were built right in the first place. The codes for stairs are a mile long, and for good reason....
Did you know that:
 Over 1 Million accidents resulting in injury happen every year on stairs?
 Stair accidents are the second leading cause of unintended injury, second only to car accidents?
 There are 12,000 stair deaths per year?
 Half of these deaths occur in the home?
*Statistics from the National Safety Council.

At 'My San Diego Home Inspector', we inspect not only how sound your stairs are, but will inform you of the safety issues at hand. We do special individual special inspections. If it is just one particular item you want inspected (eg: plumbing, electrical, attic, crawlspace...) we can do that for a fraction of a whole home inspection price.
