"Justin was great! He got into inspecting due to getting an dishonest inspection for his own home in the past, and didn’t want that happening to anyone else. We also had a similar experience in the past so this resonated with us. Justin was extremely thorough and honest- it was such a breath of fresh air!"

"Wayne Beasley has done 2 home inspections for me. He's extremely thorough and detailed. His excellent work actually saved me from a disastrous home purchase that would have literally cost me thousands. He spends hours going through every inch of the property inside and out. I highly recommend him."

"James Fraley did an excellent job of performing the preliminary analysis of our well to in sure that the correct system was used to resolve the Radon in our well water. The installation took one day and was professionally installed. All work areas were cleaned up after the installation was completed. Elite Inspections is certified by the state for the treatment of Radon in well water. The system reduced our Radon levels to below the minimum levels recommended by the UGA testing lab."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Through detailed analysis of load paths, materials, and existing damages.

Yes, deck footings typically require an inspection before laying down concrete. While not all local building codes require footing inspection, proper placement ensures a safe and structurally sound deck. An inspector will verify that the deck can adequately hold what you put on top of it., and that the footings have been dug to the correct dimensions.

Yes, in most cases, you can negotiate and make a counteroffer after a home inspection. If the inspection reveals issues with the property, you can use these findings as leverage to reduce the purchase price. Your counteroffer should account for the estimated cost of necessary repairs, and it's important to find a reasonable balance to increase the chances of the seller accepting. The main exception is if you waived the home inspection contingency to make your offer more appealing. In that situation, while you can still have an inspection done for your own information, you have no contractual recourse to make a counteroffer based on the results.

While home mold tests can provide a simple identification of mold presence, they lack accuracy and reliability. These kits may detect mold spores but can't pinpoint the source or identify the type. Professional testing, combined with an inspection, is more comprehensive and leads to actionable next steps. 

The three main types of home inspections you should always carry out for new construction include a pre-drywall inspection, a post-drywall inspection, and a one-year inspection. The pre-drywall inspection can identify building code violations, issues with plumbing, electrical, and HVAC components, and structural issues. The post-drywall inspection can identify damaged building materials, insufficient insulation, and more. An inspection at the one-year mark after construction will identify problems your builder must fix under their comprehensive one-year warranty.
