Pre-Purchase Inspections

Buying a new home can be both exciting and scary. While your dream home may look perfect on the surface, problems can require a trained eye to notice.

A home inspection by a certified and experienced inspector can help identify hidden pitfalls including structural problems, moisture, mold, rot, electrical and fire hazards, and many other problems that can turn your dream home into a nightmare of unexpected and costly repairs, or even put your family in danger.

Know what you are getting into with a quality home inspection.

What does a home inspection include?

The inspection consists of a thorough visual inspection of all visible components of the home, including the foundation, framing, windows, exterior, roof, interior, basement, electrical panel, branch wiring, and more. We look for items that need attention immediately and things that will need to be fixed or replaced in the future. You will receive a detailed inspection report containing photos and recommendations.

What will you get?

Once your inspection is complete, you will receive a detailed report. The report will be sent to you as a PDF document, and will include photos and descriptions of the condition of the following:

      • Visible Structure

      • Exterior

      • Roof - Physically walking the roof when it can be safely accomplished

      • Plumbing

      • Electrical

      • Heating / Air Conditioning System

      • Interior

      • Fireplaces and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances

      • Decks, balconies, and porches

      • Kitchen appliances

      • Laundry appliances

      • Visual examination for mold

Once you receive your report, your inspector is available by phone or text to answer questions about your report as needed.

The inspection can take up to 3 hours (time may vary depending on the size of the home) and includes basement, roof, attic, exterior, and interior. We ask that the homeowner is absent, all rooms and spaces are accessible, all animals are secured, and that the buyer is present.
