North Highlands, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/18/2015 -- SACINSPECT, the Sacramento area's leading home inspection service, launched a new home safety awareness campaign. With accidents at home resulting in over 21 million hospital admissions yearly, keeping a home safe and free of unnecessary hazards is a crucial duty for every homeowner. Through the new public awareness campaign, SACINSPECT will show residents of the Sacramento area how a few simple, straightforward tips and precautions can greatly reduce the risk of such accidents.

"Even homeowners who pride themselves on maintaining their properties often overlook issues that can result in injuries or worse," SACINSPECT co-founder and co-owner Erich Scharf observed, "Through our new public awareness campaign, we hope to help more people in the area understand how to keep their homes as safe and secure as possible. It's an honor to be able to give something back in this way and we're glad to say that the reception has so far been very positive."

Although most people think of their homes as refuges from the noise and dangers of the outside world, the reality is often something else entirely. Home-based accidents of various sorts kill over 20,000 Americans annually, according to the Injury Prevention Research Center at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

Many of these unfortunate incidents are entirely preventable, too. For example, insufficient or unsafe railings are one of the top causes of such avoidable deaths, with everyone from toddlers to the elderly succumbing to these hazards. A whole host of other potential problems exist, too, with many of them regularly escaping the notice of even those homeowners who suppose that they pay close attention to the safety of their domestic surroundings.

SACINSPECT's newly commenced public awareness campaign will help residents of the greater Sacramento area better understand and deal with these preventable dangers. Since 1996, SACINSPECT has provided the region's most expert and diligent home inspection services, in the course of which problems of this nature are frequently identified so that they can be addressed.

With an extensive background in the real estate industry that includes an active license and membership in the National Association of Realtors, SACINSPECT co-founder Erich Scharf trained at the top school for home inspectors, Inspection Training Association. This blend of experience gives Scharf and SACINSPECT a special ability to identify not only problems of a general sort like insufficient drainage, but also the kind of domestic safety hazard that causes far too many injuries and deaths in the country every year.

In conjunction with the new awareness campaign, SACINSPECT has also extended a special home inspection offer to the public. Those who book home inspections online at the SACINSPECT website will, for a limited time, receive discounts of up to $100 off the company's regular prices, allowing for a thorough, top-quality home inspection for as little as $295.
