Home Inspections

A full home inspection is designed to give you a better understanding of the condition of the home at the time of the inspection. It includes examining the visible and accessible areas of the house from the roof to the foundation, inside and outside, and checking all major appliances and systems for any apparent defects or areas of concern.

Pre-listing Home Inspection Services

Pre-Listing Inspections

A thorough assessment of the home before the home is listed. After a pre-listing inspection, you can decide to make any necessary repairs before your house goes on the market and can feel confident about the price you set.

11 month warranty inspections

11-Month Warranty Inspections

A new home contract may include a one-year warranty on appliances and major home systems. An 11-month warranty inspection identifies any issues or defects that can be fixed before the warranty expires.

New construction home inspection services

New Construction Inspections

It is often assumed that new homes are perfect; however, newly constructed homes can often have just as many and in some cases, more defects than previously-owned ones. A new construction inspection takes place prior to the last walk-through to ensure that you have no concerns when you move in.

Deck Inspection Services

Standalone Deck Inspections

A deck inspection verifies that a deck is built to withstand constant use and that the handrails are safe so that you can feel confident that it will support your family, guests, and personal property.

Chimney inspection services

Chimney Inspections

A chimney inspection examines the accessible interior and exterior areas of your chimney to make sure it is sound and free from obstructions such as flammable roofing material debris.

Roof Inspection Services

Roof Inspections

Your roof is your first line of defense against intrusive water damage. A roof inspection will verify that your home is protected from the top by identifying any visible damage or areas in need of repair.

Mold Inspection Services

Mold Testing

Mold can cause respiratory health problems, especially in children and the elderly or at risk. With a mold test, any mold specimens found will be sent to a lab to determine the type of mold. Once it is identified, it can be properly treated to remove it and prevent its return.

Radon testing services

Radon Testing

When radon gas, which has no smell and is invisible, is present, it can pose a health hazard. A radon test can detect the presence of radon gas in your home so corrective measures can be taken to protect yourself and your family if dangerous levels are present.

Water Testing

Water Testing

Certain loans require water testing, which checks for the presence of bacteria(s), E.coli, coliform nitrates, nitrates, and lead in water.

Lead based paint testing

Lead-Based Paint Testing

Lead-based paint, particularly if it’s deteriorating, can pose a dangerous health hazard. A lead-based paint test will determine if lead is present in a paint sample so that appropriate measures can be taken to protect yourself and your family.
