We had a home inspection done prior to buying a house. After we bought the house we found two pretty significant signs of previous damage that the

home inspector didn''t find on his inspection. Both are signs of water damage, one in the ceiling next to the chimney in an enclosed porch area and the other we found under the bathroom sink/cabinet where the front panel underneath has been parting from the cabinet obviously due to water damage. Out of all of the people including ourselves, the inspector, the Assessor and the realtor my father walked in, looked up and noticed it right away. My wife and I found the bathroom cabinet problem during a flood caused by the main pipe being blocked at the street. According to the city worker, the original owner had that pipe replaced years earlier because of tree roots destroying the pipe and thusly blocking the flow of fluids and waste. Is there and recourse on the home inspector for missing these things?
