Services
Home Inspection
Our comprehensive home inspections evaluate structural components, electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing. We identify existing or potential issues through visual assessments, excluding swimming pools and septic tanks. Clients receive detailed digital reports with photos to inform purchasing decisions and facilitate repairs or negotiations.
WDO Inspection
Certified Pest Operators conduct wood-destroying organism inspections to detect termites, carpenter ants, and fungal decay. Performed alongside home inspections or as standalone service, this assessment covers accessible areas and provides documented findings to mitigate future structural damage and insurance implications.
4-Point Inspection
A focused assessment of roofing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems required for insurance policies. This inspection identifies safety risks and code violations to meet insurer requirements, often conducted concurrently with standard home inspections at no additional cost.
Wind Mitigation
We evaluate homes for wind-resistant features like roof straps, shutters, and impact-resistant windows. This inspection provides documentation for insurance discounts and identifies upgrades to reduce storm damage risks, available bundled with standard home inspections.
VA Inspection
Specialized assessments meeting Veterans Administration requirements for loan approval. These inspections focus on safety, structural integrity, and basic livability standards, ensuring properties qualify for VA-guaranteed mortgages while protecting borrower investments through detailed compliance reporting.
