Buyer’s Inspections

For those of you looking to buy a home make sure you get a thorough inspection of the home before buying. Our detailed reports will provide you with all the information needed to decide and include the inspection of one attached/detached garage. Our electronic reports are complete with photos and recommended maintenance. Any needed repairs will be returned within 24 hours allowing you to leap on any transactions.

Pre-listing / Sellers Inspection

Before selling it’s a wise idea to have your home properly inspected. With a professional inspection, you can be alerted to any major causes for concern or needed repairs that could cause a deal to fall through. A current inspection will allow you to move forward in confidence and close quickly on your property.

New Construction

Sadly, rushed construction, use of subpar or incorrect material, and improper installation of appliances are all too common in newly constructed homes. By having a licensed professional verify the condition of your newly built home via a detailed inspection report you can make sure that everything has been built properly and to the correct standards.

Re-Inspections

The Inspector will return after everything detailed in the initial report has been addressed. The Inspector will make certain that all repairs or replacements have been done properly.
