Services
Buyers Home Inspection
Our comprehensive buyer's inspection thoroughly examines residential properties to identify structural, mechanical, and maintenance issues. We evaluate roofs, foundations, electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, and interior/exterior components while providing clear documentation of findings. Clients receive detailed reports with photographic evidence and maintenance recommendations to support informed purchasing decisions.
Pre-Listing Inspection
This inspection service helps homeowners identify potential issues before listing properties for sale. We conduct the same thorough evaluation as buyer inspections, focusing on market-readiness and disclosure requirements. Our reports enable sellers to address concerns proactively, potentially increasing sale value and reducing negotiation complications through transparent condition documentation.
New Construction Inspection
Specialized inspections for newly built homes verify construction quality and system functionality prior to occupancy. We examine building code compliance, finish work quality, and mechanical system performance while documenting punch list items. Our process ensures homeowners understand warranty coverage and maintenance requirements for their new property.
Radon Testing
Professional radon level measurement services use continuous monitoring devices to assess indoor air quality. We follow EPA protocols for 48+ hour testing periods, providing accurate readings and mitigation recommendations when necessary. Results are integrated into comprehensive reports with clear explanations of health implications and remediation options.
