"Ken is very thorough and reviews all aspect of a property. I especially liked that he was not in a rush to finish and move on to the next customer. He is patient and will answer all your questions. The report he provided was detailed and addressed all the items he discussed verbally during the inspection. His fee was very reasonable considering his time."

"Ben was very responsive, even at odd hours and always took my calls to answer any questions I had. He did a very thorough inspection at a great price and helped me find a pest inspector as well. I would highly recommend him. He took extra care in areas I was concerned about and made recommendations on what repairs could be critical."

"Quick effective and right to handling the job at hand. Clean up was exactly what I expected and the cost although was a costly repair I think was fair for the amount of work that was performed. I hope I don't need them but I know who to call if I do."

"Jeremy was so great. He didnâ t rush and stayed here for several hours. He did a complete home inspection. I have a log home and it needs an entire wall braced. Iâ ve had several contractors out to give an estimate and they all say his report was very detailed and gave step by step on how to do the repairs which is a tremendous help to them. You will definitely be impressed with Jeremy and his expertise."

"We contacted Groundworks to provide an inspection of our crawl space. On the schedules inspection day, Mr. John Cotten provided the inspection. After he conducted the inspection, he shared his findings with us. During the back briefing of his findings, we found him very professional, knowledgeable, and honest. Without much hesitation, we decided to invest in products he recommended to reduce the condensation and make our crawl space environmentally compatible with the North Carolina climate. We are forward to the finished product. Thank you, Gerald and Elizabeth"

Home Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can get a quote from a home insurance company without an inspection. However, if the insurer mandates one, you may have to determine who will pay for the inspection and submit it with your application so they can provide you with an accurate quote.

To determine if your house has dampers, inspect the ductwork for levers or handles, particularly near the main trunk line of your HVAC unit. Dampers are typically found in homes with ducted heating and cooling systems, but not all houses have them, as some builders may omit them to save on construction costs. If you cannot find any dampers or wish to have them installed, it is best to contact a local HVAC professional. While you can install them yourself, it may require significant work and could involve a partial air duct replacement, potentially costing $1,000 or more.

The cost of a home inspection varies depending on several factors. On average, you can expect to pay between $280 and $400, with a typical cost around $350. However, the full price range can be anywhere from approximately $187 to $510. The final cost is influenced by the home's size, age, condition, and location, as well as the inspector's experience and the depth of the inspection. Larger homes (e.g., over 2,000 square feet) and older homes typically cost more to inspect, as they may require checking for issues like structural deterioration or asbestos. The price may also increase if you need specialized services, such as asbestos testing, thermal imaging to detect infestations, or detailed checks for energy efficiency, structural integrity, or electrical problems. In most cases, the buyer pays for the home inspection. While it is an upfront cost, a thorough inspection can save you thousands of dollars in unexpected repairs.

A pre-purchase home inspection isn’t mandatory, but not having one can complicate your home insurance and mortgage loan eligibility.

Whether or not you use your home inspection results to negotiate with a seller depends on how badly you want the property, what you’re willing to pay for repairs post-closing, and how strong the market is in your area. If a seller has other offers to consider, they may walk away from yours if you try to renegotiate based on your inspection results. Speak with your agent, who should attend the home inspection, about the best course of action, and consider how badly you want or need the property.
