"Sean inspected two residences and one office building for us. He explained the process and goals of data reports. He identified potential problems that we we unaware of and provided recommendations for repairs. Sean is pleasant and professional. We recommend him to others who need mold and air quality testing."

"Great all around! The secretary was very friendly and got me an appointment quickly. The inspector himself, Kyle, was awesome. Very knowledgeable, caring, and personable. He was very thorough and willing to spend as much time needed to get the job done correctly. Iâ ve built a good number of houses and dealt with a handful of inspectors and this was by far the best."

"Aaron is a true professional. He showed up on time and was respectful of our older home that has many minor issues. Aaron gave me excellent recommendations. His communication was clear and easy to understand. My only regret is not scheduling Aaron sooner!!"

"I didn't realize how horrible my two previous home inspection experiences were until David from PurePoint came over. David was very kind, patient, knowledgeable of the area and home he was inspecting, the history of the city as it related to the types of homes in the area, and very very thorough. My uncle was there to assist me with aiding the inspection process, and after observing David work for a while he joked, "I wouldn't be surprised if this guy pulls out a magnifying glass." David was a sigh of relief from the mediocre-to-sub-par inspection appointments I had previously experienced. He was also clear, direct, and came very prepared. I received the completed report within 24hours. Hire him. Professionals like him deserve to be recognized for respecting value of their work and chosen field."

Home Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Foundation cracks won’t always affect your appraised value. All foundations crack due to normal settlement, so hairline cracks that aren’t leaking or uneven from side to side are unlikely to have an impact on your appraisal. Structural cracks, on the other hand, often lead to a reduced appraised value, especially if the underlying problem will cause the issue to worsen over time.

Yes. If a home inspection reveals that the property has major issues or is unsafe, the buyer can back out of the purchase.

Asbestos is commonly found in certain older homes, depending on the time period in which they were built. Asbestos use in home construction began in the 1920s and peaked after World War II before being limited by legislation in the ’70s, so a house constructed in 1880 is unlikely to contain asbestos, while one built in 1950 is much more likely to. Research a home’s history to determine the time period when it was built and any renovations made since.

A home inspection typically takes between two and three hours, though the total time can range from 30 minutes to half a day. The exact duration depends on several factors, including the home's size, age, condition, and location. Other variables that can affect the timeline are the complexity of the layout, the accessibility of various components, the size of the surrounding grounds, the inspector's experience, and whether it is a full home inspection or a more limited structural inspection. For a more accurate time estimate, you can ask your potential home inspector to review the specifications of the home beforehand. You should receive the completed inspection report within one to four days of the inspection.

It is generally recommended to schedule a professional plumbing inspection annually for an average home. However, the ideal frequency can vary. Newer homes may only require an inspection every two years, while older homes, or those with a history of plumbing problems, benefit from more frequent annual checkups. Other factors that might necessitate more frequent inspections include having hard water or mature trees on your property with extensive root systems that could damage sewer and water lines. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs, and typically includes checking for leaks, inspecting connections, and ensuring pipes and fixtures are in good working condition to extend the life of your plumbing system.
