We can help you with buying, selling, meeting your new home warranty reporting requirements, or if you just want to know the current quality of your property to decide on renovations or repairs. You will come away with a clear understanding of the current status and future maintenance and repair needs of a home. The home inspection is a highly structured visual inspection that examines the condition of house systems and components. There are potentially thousands of checkpoints along the way so we don't burden you with the whole checklist. We will only discuss issues relevant to the property at hand and we follow a set procedure and order of operations to make sure no key points are missed. We look at all major systems including:
The visual inspection is a combination of defect finding and education on the operation and maintenance of components in the home. The journey through the home will include references to safety, energy conservation, environmental stewardship, maintenance, and repair requirements. We hope you join us on the inspection to capture the sights, sounds, textures, and aromas of the home to fully comprehend the character of the property and to understand how the home works as a system. Having said that, the inspection is not an emotional journey, but one based on visible evidence and science, so we hope you'll understand that we may not share your same level of excitement over location, design, and decoration !
