Recommended insurance coverages include Errors & Omissions (E&O) that protects inspectors from negligence claims while General Liability insurance offers protection from bodily injury and/or property damage caused by an inspector during or as a result of a home inspection. If ancillary services are offered with a home inspection (radon, termite, mold, sewer scopes, IAQ, etc.), it’s wise to be insured for those as well. - [Lead Paint Home Inspection Insurance](https://www.elitemga.com/lead-paint-home-inspection-insurance/): The government banned the usage of lead paint in 1978.

With such widespread use of septic tanks, it is extremely possible that some septic tanks are improperly installed. A malfunctioning septic tank can become a ticking time bomb for owners, especially considering how difficult to access some of these systems can be. As home inspectors, it is important to cover yourself with additional septic and water testing insurance as part of your Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance coverage in case of faulty septic or water lines. - [Rodent Inspection Insurance](https://www.elitemga.com/rodent-inspection-insurance/): A thorough rodent inspection is not typically covered in the traditional home inspection services because the home inspector will need to move materials in an intrusive way to inspect for rodents or rodent damage. Adding this skillset to your list of highly-qualified services is a profitable investment for your business and allows you to warn your clients before making an investment mistake. With the proper training and certification, you’ll be able to identify damages caused by rodents, a current rodent infestation or how the current situation could become a rodent recipe for disaster. There are many benefits to adding rodent inspections to your home inspection service. - [Home Inspector Insurance Requirements in Washington, DC](https://www.elitemga.com/state/dc-home-inspector-insurance-requirements/): Washington, DC has no requirements for home inspectors to carry errors and omissions or general liability insurance.
