A house is, in a sense, a large machine which performs numerous functions. Its various systems and components provide protection from the elements, security, and sanitation as well as a place to work, play, eat, study, entertain, and raise families. In order to do all these things, a home’s systems and components not only have to function on their own, but also, they must function in concert with each other. A home inspection provides valuable information about the condition and operation of these systems and components. It can assist buyers in assessing the need for both immediate and preventive maintenance. Very often, a home inspector is one of the few individuals in a real estate transaction whose interests are entirely those of the buyer and who enters the home solely on the buyer’s behalf.

Most Inspections take about three to four hours. These times may vary depending on the size, age & condition of the home.

A thorough inspection covers everything from the roof to the foundation. For a full list of what is covered in our inspections visit our services.

This is a common mistake when purchasing property. Although the person you are considering may be very skilled, they are likely not trained or experienced at home inspections. Professional home inspection is a unique skill, attained through extensive training and experience covering the many facets of building construction and systems. Many contractors, and other trades professionals, will hire a certified, professional, home inspector to inspect their own home purchases.

While it is certainly not required, you are more than welcome! This is YOUR property after all. While your inspection report will usually be delivered within a few hours of the inspection, being present during the inspection will allow you to consult the Certified Inspector on any issues you may already be questioning.
