Our Home Inspection Services
Our inspections are thorough, methodical, and aligned with the highest industry standards. We focus on the systems and components that matter most for safety, function, and long-term value:
- Structure & Exterior: We evaluate the foundation, framing, siding, roofing, gutters, grading, and drainage. This includes checking for cracks, settlement, water intrusion, and exterior wear that could compromise the home’s stability or safety.
- Roof & Attic: We assess the condition of shingles, flashing, venting, and gutters, along with attic insulation and ventilation. We look for signs of leaks, poor airflow, pest activity, or moisture damage that can lead to long-term problems.
- Plumbing, Electrical & HVAC: We inspect major systems including visible plumbing lines, water heaters, electrical panels, wiring, outlets, heating units, and air conditioning systems. We focus on identifying safety issues, signs of aging, or improper installation.
- Interior Components: We examine walls, ceilings, floors, doors, and windows throughout the home for functionality, damage, and finish quality. We also test built-in appliances and evaluate garages and accessible crawlspaces or basements.
We go beyond the surface to uncover hidden issues and give you a full picture of your home’s condition—delivered in a clear, actionable report.
