Services
I will conduct a thorough inspection of your home, inside and out. I have the knowledge and expertise to provide you with a thorough and professional, non-intrusive, visual inspection of your home, from roof to foundation.
Outside the home, I will check the exterior walls, roof, overheat clearances, deck, walls, ceilings, floors, doors, and windows. The heating, air-conditioning,plumbing, and electrical systems will all be examined to ensure that they function as intended. Bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms receive a thorough check, along with the attic and basement or crawl space.
Here's what you can expect with your inspection:
The Actual Inspection
Where you meet me and the actual evaluation of the property takes place. The inspection of a typical home usually takes between 2 to 4 hours, depending upon the size and condition of the home.
The Report & Summary
Given at the end of the Inspection, where the condition of the house is summarized for you, and any significant defects are brought to your attention.
After The Inspection
I will still be available to you after the Inspection, to clarify or answer any questions you may have about the Inspection and Report. This is part of the Inspection, and you should not expect to be charged an extra fee for this. I will not charge you for consultation over the telephone. After the initial inspection, if you want a home visit, however, an additional fee to be involved.
