Our Services
Buying a home is exciting—but also one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make. Before you sign on the dotted line, a home inspection gives you the full picture of what’s really inside those walls. From the roof to the foundation, plumbing to electrical systems, it uncovers hidden issues, safety hazards, and potential repairs so you can make an informed decision. After all, wouldn’t you rather know the truth about your future home than be surprised later?
Full Home Inspection
Our general inspection covers the overall condition of your home, from foundation to the roof. We carefully assess major systems and structures, including plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and interior spaces, ensuring you have a clear understanding of your property’s safety and value.
Four Point Inspection
Our four-point inspection provides a targeted evaluation of roofing, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. This inspection is often required for insurance purposes, especially in older homes, and ensures that the property meets safety and risk standards.
11 Month Inspection
An 11-month inspection (also called an 11-month warranty inspection, builder’s warranty inspection, or 11-month home warranty inspection) is a professional home inspection typically performed on a newly constructed home around the 11th month after closing or moving in.
New Construction Inspection
Just because a home is brand-new doesn't mean it's perfect. Even newly built homes can have flaws that aren't obvious at first glance. Our new construction inspection reviews the structure, major systems, and finishes to ensure the home was built properly and that everything is safe, functional, and ready for move-in.
New Construction Inspection
(pre drywall)
A pre-drywall inspection takes place before the walls are closed up, giving us the chance to examine the framing, wiring, plumbing, insulation, and other key components while they’re still visible. This helps ensure that everything has been installed properly and that no hidden issues get sealed behind the drywall.
Fireplace & Chimney Inspection
Inspecting a fireplace and chimney is critical for identifying safety hazards like dangerous creosote buildup, structural cracks, blockages, or carbon monoxide leaks. These inspections help prevent chimney fires, ensure proper ventilation, and uncover hidden, costly repairs, particularly during real estate transactions or before seasonal use.
