We perform a visual home inspection of the structure and components as well as conduct operational checks of the various mechanical systems. We evaluate their present condition and life expectancy. On average, the home inspection will take 3 hours. Cleaner homes may take less time, while houses with many serious issues may take up to 5 hours.
In 2007, our home inspections revealed that 1 in 3 furnaces had a cracked heat exchanger, 1 in 5 homes had a breached chimney liner, 64%* needed over $1,000 to repair the problems, 70% of the radon tests returned high, 45% had serious electrical hazards (where the occupants were in danger of electrocution or the home having an electrical fire), and 71%* had serious safety hazards that posed a threat to the occupants. (* Does not include the radon figures.)
We provide accurate and detailed reports in an easy-to-read narrative format complete with digital photos of the significant problems. Our philosophy is to provide a quality inspection in a timely manner with a professional report that enables our clients to successfully negotiate the purchase of their home.
