Buyers

That picture-perfect house that you are about to purchase could easily turn into the worst investment that you could make. That historic home that has been flipped into a cute, modern bungalow could be hiding serious structural and mechanical issues. Some unscrupulous flippers put cosmetic fixes on homes to hide serious problems with the home. A home inspection is an affordable way to discover whether or not the home that you are about to buy is in good shape and safe for you and your family.

Sellers

As a home seller, you may think that you don’t need a home inspection since most buyers opt for home inspections. Because home inspections are so thorough, they’ll likely uncover defects that you weren’t even aware of. Not being prepared can give the buyer the upper hand when it comes to negotiating the price of your home. It might even kill the sale of your home altogether.

Don’t let that happen. Instead of waiting around for the buyer’s inspection to learn about problems, contact us to get a pre-listing home inspection. This piece of valuable information can help you iron out issues before listing your home.

What Other Home Inspection Services Should I Get?

Sewer Scopes

During the life of a home, many things can occur to the sewer that the homeowner may not even be aware of. Examples include pipe collapse, tree root intrusions, and debris accumulation in your lines. A sewer scope can identify all of these issues and more.

If the home that you are purchasing is more than 20 years old or if trees are planted on or near your property, a sewer scope is a must. Even brand new homes sometimes have defective sewer lines. Therefore, sewer scopes can be helpful for newer homes, as well.

A sewer scope is a non-invasive inspection of your home’s sewer lines from the connection to the mainline. Our inspectors use high-tech thermal imaging equipment to determine the physical state of your sewer lines.

Mold Testing

We strongly recommend getting mold testing done if you are buying a house. If you are a home seller or homeowner and have any suspicion that you have a mold problem, then you should also get mold testing. Signs of mold include peeling wallpaper, dark spots on the walls or ceilings, and a musty smell. Also, if you have ever had flooding inside your home, you should have it tested for mold.

Radon Testing

Radon is a radioactive gas that is known to cause lung cancer. This gas is a silent killer — you cannot see, smell, or taste it. The gas occurs naturally in the soil. It is the byproduct of decaying uranium. Radon can build up under your home and enter through foundation cracks, the basement or other areas.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says if the level of radon in your home is at or above 4 pCi/L, then you should reduce it. Fortunately, radon can be reduced with a mitigation system.

Radon testing is the only way to know the level of radon in your home. See if you qualify for a FREE diy radon test kit.

Can I Attend The Home Inspection?

Yes! We highly recommend that you attend the home inspection. Buying a home is a big investment. We want you to understand exactly what we find during the inspection. You are always welcome to ask questions or voice any concerns about the inspection.
