Standard Home Inspection

Standard Home Inspections

A standard home inspection is a non-invasive, visual examination of the accessible areas of a residential property. It is intended to identify defects within specific systems and components of the home and provide the home owner with valuable information about the property.  We provide a written report that details its condition, including an assessment of necessary or recommended repairs, maintenance concerns, and any other potentially costly issues. We will assess the physical structure of the home inside and out, from the foundation to the roof. We also inspect the home's systems such HVAC, electrical, and plumbing.

New Construction Inspections

New construction inspections should be scheduled as soon as you are informed that the builder’s walkthrough will be occurring in the coming days. Before that happens, we’ll thoroughly evaluate the state of new construction to check for deficiencies that the builder will need to correct.


Our inspection types for New Construction include, Phase 1 (Pre-slab), Phase 2 (Pre-drywall), Site Inspections During Construction, and Final Inspections.

Pre-Listing Inspections

A Pre-Listing Inspection is performed prior to you putting your home on the market. This type of inspection is intended to provide you information about your homes current condition and defects that may be present.  This can afford you the ability and time to make structural repairs or even upgrade and replace systems that may increase the likelihood of a sale.

11-Month Warranty Inspections

Most builders offer a one-year warranty on a new home. We’ll come out during the 11th month and perform a full home inspection before the builder’s warranty expires. Following your inspection, you will receive a comprehensive report, complete with photos, that includes information on any material defects observed on the date of the inspection. Armed with this information, you can take any necessary steps to hold your builder and subcontractors to their warranties while they’re still active.

Annual Inspections

An annual home inspection gives you the information you need to prevent small problems from becoming large and costly to repair.  We can help will notice signs of a minor water leak,  a shifting foundation, a leaky roof, or an appliance in need of routine maintenance. Being proactive about these issues can head off large, complicated, costly repairs down the road.

Re-Inspections

A re-inspection is a home inspection that is performed to ensure that any repairs made by the seller are to acceptable standards. The last thing you want is to request a few big-ticket repairs to be completed by the seller, close on the house, and move in to find poor work quality that needs to be fixed again. 

Thermal Imaging

Thermal Infrared Imaging requires the use of special cameras. The imaging sensors in these cameras are sensitive to wavelengths in the infrared region of the electro-magnetic spectrum. Thermal Infrared Imaging is also referred to as “non-visible” imaging, because the infrared spectrum is not visible to the human eye. We can utilize this technology to help detect energy loss, moisture intrusion, hot spots throughout the home, possible pest infestations, and much more.
