WE ARE CURRENTLY PROVIDING MOLD AND HOME INSPECTIONS. CALL US TO SCHEDULE OR DISCUSS AT 707-999-3400. We’re committed to keeping our community safe by taking guidance from the CDC. Sherlock provides a free and friendly phone consultation. We are experts in the dangers of abnormal mold growth, radon, allergens, smoke damage, EMF and other indoor air quality problems. Many of our clients are referred to us by their doctors, since we provide specialized indoor air quality testing using DNA mold testing protocols (ERMI). Beware of persons offering to also remediate, since it is a code of ethics violation in our industry.

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.

FAQs for home inspection projects in San Rafael, CA

It’s important to get a home inspection when buying a home because home inspectors are trained to examine the various aspects of a home to determine that everything is in good condition and find unseen problems that current homeowners need to fix before the home sale takes place. Although home inspections are not legally required, a thorough inspection can help you decide if you want to purchase a home. That’s why it’s essential to keep a home inspection contingency so that you have the option to walk away from the sale if the home inspection reveals expensive issues.

A home inspection typically includes the home inspector conducting a thorough visual examination of essential home structures and mechanical components. Afterward, the inspector will provide a home inspection report that relays descriptions of damage or other findings for the homeowner to review.

Home inspectors will examine the following home areas and features:

  • Plumbing

  • Electrical

  • Foundations

  • Roof

  • Windows and doors

  • Overall condition of interior and exterior

  • HVAC systems

  • Attics

  • Basements or crawl spaces

  • Major built-in appliances

Typically, a licensed and certified local home inspector conducts home inspections. Real estate agents often work closely with trusted home inspectors. Licensing requirements vary from state to state for home inspectors, but they must have local certification and valid insurance. Many licensed home inspectors belong to professional associations like the American Society of Home Inspectors.

Typically, the home buyer pays for the inspection by hiring a home inspector. This method helps you make an informed decision about a home’s condition before purchasing it. Home sellers can also conduct their own home inspection to ensure that they are getting the best price for their home and property.

On average, home inspections cost about $350, ranging from $200 to $500, depending on the home’s size, age, and location, plus any specialty inspections required. Additional cost factors include testing for asbestos or conducting thermal imaging tests to find infestations, checking energy efficiency, and looking for structural or electrical problems. If your home is more than 2,000 square feet, you can expect to pay $400 or more.
