What's included in our home inspection

Our residential property inspection is a thorough evaluation of a home’s visible and readily accessible components.

During the inspection, our inspector looks for any potential issues, defects, and safety concerns. He will also provide general maintenance suggestions. A comprehensive, detailed report will be ready on the following day.

Infrared thermography is used as necessary at no extra cost to go beyond the visible to pinpoint the sources of potential moisture intrusion, energy loss, electrical hotspots, missing insulation, and sometimes even clogged plumbing.

A Drone Inspection is used if the roof is deemed unsafe to walk by the inspector. This allows us to see the roof in great detail, impossible to do with just a pair of binoculars.
