Overview of the Inspection

A professional inspection gives you an independent, unbiased view of problems and their solutions, so that you will have the facts you need to make a sound, informed decision. Depending on the size and condition of the property, a thorough inspection should take  no more than 4.5 hours for a single family home. Typically between 3.5-4 hours. We strongly recommend you accompany your inspector during the consultation. This provides the opportunity to discuss any concerns regarding the property as they are pointed out and you and your inspector are both looking at the home.

Same Day Reports

You will receive both a written report and video of your inspection. The written report will include a summary list of items to be noted. The written report is emailed to you at the end of the inspection and your video will be also sent to your email via Dropbox that evening, when the inspector returns to the office. Our inspector also provides free telephone consultations after your inspection and encourages you to call with any questions or concerns. Our clients are welcome to call even years after the inspection to get objective advice on repairs and concerns. Radon is at least a 48 hour test. You will receive a verbal report as soon as the equipment is picked up and a written report will follow: if it fails, the report is scanned and sent to your email address; if it passes, the report is mailed USPS.
