A property cannot fail an inspection. A professional property inspection gives you an independent, unbiased view of any
problems and their solutions so that you will have all the facts you need to make a sound, informed decision.
Depending
on the size and condition of the property, a thorough property inspection will typically last two to four hours.
Ideally, you will accompany your inspector during the consultation so that you will have visual reinforcement of your written
report.
We take our inspection reports seriously. Every inspection is a complete and thorough analysis of
all the major systems and components in the property. The report includes a clear description of what we've found with
any problem areas noted so you can easily identify them. Our inspectors are available for a free telephone consultation after
your inspection.
A thorough property inspection will include the following:
~ Roof (shingles, flashings,
chimneys, vents, trim and gutters, drip edges, skylights, downspouts, and other visible roof related items) |
| ~ Attics (insulation, ventilation, rafters, joists and collar ties, trusses, wiring attachments,
and other visible related items)
| ~ Plumbing and Fixtures (water pressure, water distribution system, hose bibs, sinks and faucets,

| ~ Interior
