We are owner operated with 22 plus years in Construction allowing us to see an issue because we have most likely fixed it in the past. Why do we do what we do? We have been there! We have purchased homes before. One of those homes we relied on our home inspector and once we closed all was not what it seemed to be. We were stuck with repairs that at the time we could not afford, and we definitely did not plan for. So now it is our mission to make sure that this does not happen to anyone else. We want you to be prepared and make an informed decision on one of the most important and largest investments that you will make in your life. We treat the homes that we inspect as if we will be living there with our children. What do we do as an inspection company? We visually inspect the structure and components of a home with top-of-the-line tooling looking for any immediate or potential problems. We then provide a written report with a description of the problematic areas and include recommendations for further evaluation. What type of buildings do we inspect? From mobile homes to 8000 sqft Mansions and light commercial to heavy commercial Properties.

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

You can guarantee that you hire a professional home inspector by reviewing their qualifications, years of experience, customer reviews, and certifications before hiring. If you’re working with a realtor, they can recommend at least one trusted professional home inspector. You can always confirm the credentials of a home inspector by checking for affiliations with organizations like the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors or the American Society of Home Inspectors. 

Waiving a home inspection could be beneficial if you’re buying a home in a hot location where the seller has many other offers to consider, especially if other buyers are willing to waive the inspection. However, it’s not usually a good idea to waive an inspection, even on new construction. Inspections can identify problems that could cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, so a formal inspection is always worthwhile. If you’re having a new home built, a pre-drywall inspection is often the most valuable, but a final inspection before you close is also a good idea.

Some of the biggest red flags to look out for after a home inspection include signs of water or moisture damage, missing or damaged shingles, structural problems like bowing roof joists, cracks in the foundation, and signs of pest damage.

Home inspectors may look briefly at your roof, but certified roof experts will be more thorough. Hiring a roof inspector can give you a better sense of any underlying concerns as well as longevity. That said, a roof inspector won’t look at the rest of your home. The inspection may or may not include the attic, where problems can be hidden if they aren’t already visible on the surface of your roof. It’s important to clarify exactly what you’re getting with your inspector so there are no surprises.

Home HVAC inspection costs vary widely from state to state. These different cost factors are due to geographic locations and cost of living. States with a lower cost of living are likely to have lower inspection costs compared with high-cost-of-living states. HVAC inspection costs can also vary within a state. If a technician has to travel a long distance to reach your home, you can expect to pay more for your inspection.
