At GreenWorks, we know that buying, building, or investing in property is one of the biggest decisions of your life. You deserve absolute peace of mind and confidence in your investment. That’s why we’ve built the nation’s largest privately owned, non-franchise inspection and engineering company—serving with unmatched quality, speed, and care. Unlike most inspectors who only point out problems, GreenWorks provides clear answers, proactive solutions, and cost transparency. Every inspection includes a detailed walkthrough, a comprehensive report with photos, and a free repair estimator so you know exactly what deficiencies mean and how much they will cost to fix. From foundation mapping, plumbing, and HVAC checks to mold, asbestos, radon, and lead testing, our comprehensive services ensure no detail is missed. For homeowners, we are your go-to partner from the first pre-pour on new construction to warranty inspections years later. For realtors, we keep deals moving forward with fast, accurate reports and communication your clients can trust. For commercial investors, we can inspect up to 900 units a day, delivering thorough PCAs, ESAs, and structural plans that keep feasibility studies on schedule. And for builders, we provide engineering-led quality assurance to make sure projects are built right the first time. Founded nearly two decades ago by CEO Harmony Brownwood, GreenWorks was created to raise the bar in an industry that too often settles for the bare minimum. Every inspector completes a rigorous training program—including structural engineering—before serving clients. Our team is backed by licensed engineers, cutting-edge technology, and a full support staff available 365 days a year. When you choose GreenWorks, you’re choosing more than an inspection. You’re choosing a long-term partner committed to safeguarding your property, protecting your investment, and giving you clarity at every step.

"I have a very dangerous situation with my foundation in the front of my house. I hired these guys to tell me how to tell a contractor to fix the problem. When they came out to inspect, I showed them the problem and they agreed, it was a real problem. Later, they send a report back that completely ignores the very real problem I have. Instead, telling me to fix the back of the house that is no problem at all. Trying to ask for further assistance, they said they did what I paid them for."

"Daniel H. Did an amazing job on our new home inspection. He arrived on time, and we met with him at the end of his process. He went through the entire home - top to bottom and has the pictures to prove that he even went on top of the roof. He met with us, and showed each of the areas that had issues and patiently explained the issue and recommended repairs. He even found out that our dishwasher wasn’t connected properly. He answered all of our questions and we never had the impression that he was in a rush. It was an afternoon inspection, and it ran a little late due to our questions. We feel more prepared to move into our home knowing what to look for and to be sure that repairs have been made. THANKS DANIEL for a great job. WE really appreciate it."

"We had a simple plat process where we split one property into 2. We relied on A-1 to provide the service. Not only did it take 24 months to complete (yes you read that correctly), but we had to hound the team to get it done. Some of the delays were basic. Hays County had a checklist of requirements for electronic files, it took multiple rounds to get these corrected and added to the delay. That delay, because of price inflation, has cost me more than $12,000 in additional costs for septic components. Would not recommend, not even to my ex-wife."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

You shouldn’t see a difference in your home’s value from your local property assessor if you have asbestos. Does asbestos affect home value when you are selling the home, though? If you are planning to sell the home, most jurisdictions require you to legally disclose the presence of asbestos to any buyer. Most buyers would have reservations about purchasing a home with asbestos, so they may offer less for the home. If you hire a pro to completely remove the asbestos, you do not have to disclose to buyers that the home once had asbestos.

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.

If you suspect that your roof is leaking, you can hire a professional roofing contractor to inspect it to find the source of the issue. There are many possible reasons why your roof is leaking, including broken shingles, damaged flashing, clogged gutters, and more. A roof leak inspection will help you pinpoint the exact cause of the leak and the pro will suggest the best way to resolve it.

How long the home inspection takes can vary greatly depending on the size of the home and the type of inspections being done—the same goes for receiving the final home inspection report. Some inspectors are busier than others, so it may take a little longer. Generally speaking, however, you can expect to receive the report within 1-2 business days after the inspection.

Systems should be checked every 2-3 years or whenever signs of age appear, maintaining network integrity and safety at all times.
