Standard Home Inspection
Our comprehensive visual inspection covers all major home systems including structure, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. We examine foundations, roofs, windows, doors, and built-in appliances. Clients receive a detailed PDF report with photos and maintenance recommendations within 24 hours. Our certified inspector explains findings during the visit to ensure complete understanding.
Radon Testing
As certified radon testers, we conduct EPA-recommended real estate transaction tests in Zone 1 areas. Our evaluation measures radon levels exceeding 4 pCi/L, providing critical health risk information. Results help determine mitigation needs while meeting real estate transaction requirements. We follow strict protocols for accurate measurements during home inspections or standalone tests.
