- Attic, insulation, and ventilation

Buyer’s Inspection
Home buyers don’t want to stress about the possibility of expensive post-purchase repairs. During a Buyer’s Inspection, we help the buyer understand the home’s weaknesses so that they can request repairs before closing. We also help them understand how the home operates so that they can feel comfortable and safe as they settle in, prepared to maintain their new property for years to come.
Pre-Listing Inspection
Proof of a Pre-Listing Inspection helps potential buyers understand that a property seller is professional and honest. The results from the inspection allow sellers to be forthcoming with buyers about the property’s strengths and its issues. A Pre-Listing Inspection also allows sellers the opportunity to repair the home before listing, increasing their negotiating power in a competitive market.
New Construction Inspection
A New Construction Inspection is completed after a property is built but before the final walkthrough with the builder. During the inspection, we check that all major and minor building details are safe and defect-free in preparation for a future move-in. The findings in the inspection report will let builders know what oversights need to be addressed before the walkthrough.
11th Month Warranty Inspection
Most newly built homes are sold with a one-year builder’s warranty and should be inspected during the warranty’s 11th month. During the 11th Month Warranty Inspection, we search the property for any defects that the builder will cover so that owners can request repairs before becoming financially responsible for issues.
Re-Inspection
It can be helpful in some situations to have a Re-Inspection completed after a buyer’s requested repairs have been made. During this second inspection, we focus on the changes made to the home since our last visit and ensure that all repair agreements between buyer and seller have been honored.
The Best Tools and Technology at No Additional Cost
Thermal Imaging Camera
We use a state-of-the-art Thermal Imaging Camera during our inspections. The infrared camera picks up on areas of heat loss and excessive heat behind a home’s surfaces that aren’t visible to the naked eye. These images help us discover moisture intrusion in the walls, leaks around doors and windows, and improperly insulated areas of the home.
Moisture Meter
We use a Moisture Meter during our inspections to measure moisture levels around the home and find suspected leaks or water damage.
Combustible Gas Leak Detector
Gas leaks are dangerous, and their location can often be difficult to pinpoint. We use a Combustible Gas Leak Detector during our inspections to find exactly where a leak is and keep occupants safe.
Carbon Monoxide Detector
Carbon Monoxide is deadly but can’t be seen, smelled, or otherwise detected without professional equipment, so we use a Carbon Monoxide Detector during all of our inspections.
Additional Services
Radon Testing
Radon is a toxic gas that is known for causing lung cancer. The gas naturally occurs in uranium-rich soil and rises into a home through the ground beneath, becoming trapped and building up to dangerous levels. Radon is invisible and odorless, so professional Radon Testing is required to detect its presence and avoid exposure.
Aerial Drone Photography
We can use an aerial drone to collect images from above a property. These high-resolution photographs are a great way to inspect the area around a property or a roof that the inspector has decided is unsafe to inspect on foot.
360° Photography
A 360° camera creates an image of the home that allows buyers to virtually “revisit” the property anytime they desire after leaving the inspection. These images are a great way for the buyer to become better acquainted with the layout of the home and go back to see minor details that they may have otherwise forgotten.
Sewer Inspections
When a client requests a Sewer Inspection be completed at the same time as the property inspection, we subcontract this service out to a trusted and professional plumber.
