What does the inspector look for?

When choosing us as your home inspector we can give you the reassurance that you are picking a educated and seasoned inspector and know it is important for our inspector to be able to identify crucial inspection components. Having said that, our inspector will conduct a thorough and detailed inspection of all ten main components of the home. 

What is a home inspection?

In the process of closing a home sale, the buyer hires a home inspector to come to the house and perform a visual observation. In accordance with the state’s standards, the home inspector identifies health, safety, or major mechanical issues. We look for things that are significantly deficient, unsafe, near the end of the service life, or not functioning properly.”

What happens during a home inspection?

A typical home inspection takes three hours for an average sized house. Then the report is written and is given to the customer in 24 hours or less. The home inspector will go through the interior and exterior of the house, from top to bottom and inside and out to record any broken, defected, or hazardous issues with the house and the area surrounding the house.
