Choosing the right home or commercial inspector can be difficult. Each has different qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods, and pricing. And unlike most professionals, you may not have the opportunity to meet me in person until after you hire me, so you must make your decision based on the information you see here on this website, and by talking to me on the phone. One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires work, a lot of work. Ultimately, a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort. If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home, I assure that I will give you my very best effort. This I promise you. Additional email - [email protected]

"I met with the agent after the inspection was complete. He walked me through the results explaining in depth (and in layman terms) anything that needed attention and items that he felt were exceptional. He went as far to tell me it might be a good idea to remove the diving board in the pool area because 90% of all pool injuries are a result of diving boards and/or slides and that it may result in higher insurance costs. He also explained a lot about septic systems and swimming pools that I wasn't aware of. The previous owner had an inspector come in before listing the home and fixed everything on his list. Most items my inspector found were minor and inexpensive to fix. Finding the failed connection to a bathroom drain really impressed me. The drain worked properly unless a large amount of water flowed trough it (emptying the tub). I feel he went over and above his duties and would recommend this company to anyone needing inspection services."

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

It is almost always necessary to hire a land surveyor near you to ensure your fence sits on the right side of the property line. Mistaking the shape of your property can lead to fines and costly changes if you have to move or adjust the privacy fence—not to mention some surly looks from your neighbor. We recommend jumpstarting your fence planning in the spring to ensure there is plenty of time to map out your plan before construction season.

A land survey provides precise property boundaries, reveals legal encroachments, and identifies rights-of-way, minimizing disputes. Understanding the exact dimensions and features of the property aids in informed decision-making and safeguards the buyer's investment.

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.

Measure from zero on a measuring tape by placing the metal hook right up against the edge of what you need to measure. You can also latch the hook onto an open edge—of, say, a table—to accurately measure as well. If you begin at the 1-inch mark, you'll need to subtract an inch from your total.

Land surveys are worth it in several scenarios including selling your home, building an addition, constructing a fence, or making major changes to your landscape. A professional land survey can help you avoid legal issues with your neighbors and confirm the value of your property. In many cases, you may be required to order a land survey to receive a construction permit or mortgage loan.
