Add-Ons
Pool Inspection: $100
A pool inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of a swimming pool and its associated equipment, such as pumps, filters, etc. It includes assessing the pool's structure, safety features, water quality, and component conditions.
This inspection is valuable to clients because it helps identify any safety hazards, such as faulty wiring or non-compliant pool barriers, and ensures the pool is in good working condition. It can also reveal hidden issues, like leaks or structural damage, potentially avoiding costly problems down the line.
Radon Inspection: $150
A radon inspection is a process of testing for the presence of radon gas in a home or building. Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that can seep into homes and buildings from the ground, particularly in areas with high levels of radon in the soil.
This inspection is valuable to clients because radon is a known carcinogen and prolonged exposure to high levels of radon can increase the risk of developing lung cancer. Testing for radon allows homeowners to identify and mitigate radon levels if necessary, ensuring a safe living environment for themselves and their families.
Termite Inspection: $100
A termite inspection is a thorough examination of a property to detect the presence of termites or termite damage. It involves inspecting both the interior and exterior of a structure, including crawl spaces and basements (if applicable), for signs of termites, such as mud tubes, damaged wood, and discarded wings.
This inspection is valuable to clients because termites can cause significant damage to a property if left unchecked. Detecting termites early can help prevent extensive damage and the need for costly repairs. It also provides peace of mind to a client, knowing their property is free from these destructive pests.
Drone Inspection w/o Home Inspection: $150
A drone inspection for a roof involves using a drone equipped with a camera to inspect the condition of a roof. The drone is flown over the roof to capture high-quality images and videos, which are then used to assess the roof's condition, identify any damage or issues, and make recommendations to address them.
This type of inspection is valuable to clients because it provides a detailed and comprehensive view of the roof without the need for ladders or scaffolding, which can be dangerous and time-consuming. It allows for a quick and efficient assessment of the roof's condition, saving the client time and money on repairs.

TOP 15 FAQ'S ABOUT INSPECTIONS
What does a home inspection cover?
A home inspection typically includes a visual assessment of the home’s structure, foundation, roof, plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, and other major components to identify any existing problems or potential concerns.
How much does a home inspection cost?
The cost can vary depending on the size of the home, but it typically ranges from $300 to $700. Larger homes or additional services like radon testing may cost more.
How do I choose a home inspector?
Look for certifications from reputable organizations like the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) or the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI). Get recommendations from real estate agents or previous clients, and ensure the inspector is licensed and insured.
How long does a home inspection take?
The duration of a home inspection typically ranges from 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size and condition of the home.
Do I need to be present during the inspection?
No, and most clients aren't. Yet you are welcome to be there if you like.
What if the inspection finds problems?
If problems are found, you can use the inspection report to negotiate repairs or a price reduction with the seller. Please check with your realtor on guidance in this matter.
Can a home fail an inspection?
No, a home cannot "fail" an inspection. The inspection simply provides an objective assessment of the home's condition, highlighting repairs and maintenance that may need attention.
What is the difference between a home inspection and an appraisal?
A home inspection evaluates the condition of the home for the benefit of the buyer, while an appraisal determines the home's market value, primarily for the benefit of the lender.
Should I get a home inspection on a new construction?
Yes, even new construction homes can have defects. A professional inspection can ensure that everything is in good working condition and built to code before you move in.
Are there different types of home inspections?
Yes, besides standard home inspections, there are specialized ones like mold, radon, termite, and sewer line inspections, which may be advisable depending on the home and location.
What are the most common problems found during home inspections?
Common issues include faulty wiring, roofing problems, plumbing issues, inadequate insulation, and moisture and drainage problems.
Can I just do a home inspection myself?
It’s not recommended, as professional home inspectors have the training, experience, and tools to conduct thorough inspections that most homeowners do not.
How soon after the inspection will I receive the report?
Most inspectors provide the report within 24 to 48 hours after the inspection. We provide our reports the evening of the inspection.
What should I look for in the home inspection report?
Focus on critical issues that may require major repairs or pose safety concerns, as well as maintenance tips and minor issues noted by the inspector.
Is it legally required to get a home inspection?
It is not legally required, but it is highly advisable to have one done to avoid unexpected repairs and costs after purchase.
