Home inspections can help you buy or sell
your home with confidence. As trained professionals we have has seen it all, and we'll provide invaluable help in turning
you into a knowledgeable consumer. Homeowners can identify problems in the making and take preventive measures to avoid costly
repairs. Sellers can understand conditions the buyer’s inspector may point out and put the property in better selling
condition by making repairs. Our inspection services include:
Buyers Inspection
In both new and older homes, the best way to ensure that you are well informed about the strengths and weaknesses
of a property is to have us give you a professional home inspection. We are trained to identify problem areas both small and
large that may have been overlooked by the previous owners and to identify which require immediate attention. See our Inspection Overview for more details.
Sellers Inspection
Whether you are selling your home on your own or using a realtor, it’s always a prudent idea
to have a professional home inspection. Knowledge is power. All homes have strengths and weaknesses: we help you answer how
serious the problems are and which ones must be immediately addressed. The more you know about
your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation. See our Inspection Overview for more details.
Construction Inspection
In a new home, the quality of construction is often not what
it used to be some years ago, therefore many buyers have independent reviews of their properties during various stages of
the construction process, including slab, frame, and final inspection. This relatively inexpensive inspection protects your
purchase, prevents unpleasant surprises, and ensures the quality home that you’ve dreamed about.
Warranty Inspection
Most builders provide a one-year warranty for new construction.
Generally during this period of time the buyer develops a "punch list" of corrections for the contractor to repair
under the warranty coverage. Some defects will not be obvious to the untrained eye. It is prudent to obtain our home inspectors
list of items that will most likely be repaired by your builder at no cost to you. You will be reassured knowing that potential
problems were addressed before they grew into something that could cost you a great deal down the road

Our job as your professional home inspector is to alert you, to
