Our Services
Residential Pre-Listing (Seller's) Inspection
If you’re looking to sell your house, you may want to get ahead of the buyer’s home inspection by having your home inspected before you list it. A pre-inspection, often called a pre-listing inspection, can reveal any potential problems with the property and alert you to any necessary home repairs.
Residential Purchase (Buyer's) Inspection
When you put in an offer on a house, you may think you’re set to move in. However, a professional home inspection can reassure home buyers they’ve made the right decision by showing them potential problems before closing. Before a home inspection, it’s important to get all your questions answered to better understand the process, cost and more.
Mold Assessment
A mold assessment can help identify areas that support mold growth and determine the proper containment, cleaning, and restoration methods. The results of a mold assessment can also be used to create a mold remediation plan, which is a document that outlines what needs to be done, how it should be done, and how to tell if all the mold has been removed.
Radon Testing
No matter where you are in America, your home may be exposed to dangerous radon gas. Radon is a radioactive, colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that’s produced by the natural decay of uranium and other elements in soil, rock, water and can be dangerous to human health if inhaled in high levels. Radon can enter buildings through cracks in floors, walls, and foundations, or through well water.
Walk-Through Consultation
Also known as a pre-offer consultation or walk and talk inspection, this is a verbal consultation with a licensed home inspector. The inspector walks through the property with the poyential buyer and real estate agent to point out any obvious defects. This type of consultation is a time saver for buyers who are rushing to make offers.
Water Bacteria Testing
Find out if your water is safe and free from bacteria through our water quality testing service. Water quality testing involves analyzing a water sample to determine the presence and concentration of various chemical, physical, and biological characteristics.
Home Maintenance Inspection
A home maintenance inspection is like a checkup for your home. It’s done by a professional home inspector, who examines the entire property’s structure, components, and systems to look for anything that might need replacement or repair.
Thermal Inspection
Thermal inspection is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that uses infrared cameras to detect temperature variations in objects. This information can be used to identify hidden problems or defects in a wide range of applications.
Limited Commercial Inspection
We inspect moderate size properties that do not include industrial sized HVAC and Electrical Systems. These inspections include churches, small office buildings, multi-family (over 4 units) buildings, condominiums (over 4 units), etc.
