Key Differentiators

1. Older Home Specialist

It’s a fact that many home inspectors have a difficult time inspecting homes that are older and often report very common conditions as major defects. Having an in-depth knowledge of old building practices from post & beam, pier & beam framing gives me a unique advantage. I know these houses like the back of my hand and I can explain my observations clearly.

2. We encourage you to attend your inspection and ask questions.

In a field where many inspectors ask their clients not attend the inspection, or just to arrive at the end, we’re the exact opposite. We want you to join in and ask questions. When we find defects or concerns, we love to explain how they’re typically repaired or remediated and what the severity of the issue is. This can often be the difference between something appearing catastrophic and something manageable or fixable.

We consider ourselves not just inspectors, but professional consultants and your home inspection is your best opportunity to learn about the home. Go ahead, just take a look at our reviews, and you’ll see many clients commenting on this aspect of our service. You deserve to get your money’s worth and deserve to be present during your inspection.

3. I always perform a roof-level inspection. 

Many home inspectors in our area will merely look at your roof with binoculars from the ground. We believe you deserve better than that. We’ll either walk the roof, use a high resolution drone or we’ll use our 30 foot Docapole camera system if the first two options aren’t possible. The roof is too important to skip and being thorough is of utmost importance.

We include:

• A thorough, qualified inspection.
• An easy-to-read, cloud-based report that includes photos and video.
• Downloadable PDF version of the report.
• We won’t dilly-dally. (we won’t take longer than necessary)

What we won’t do:

• We won’t be alarmists. There’s no reason to make small issues seem big and scary, even if there’s many. Small issues are easy to remedy.
• We won’t make you wait for your report. Most reports are delivered on the spot, or same day and never more than 24hrs after the inspection.

What we’ll do:

• Inspect everything from the ground to the rooftop, inside and out.
• Look for hidden defects, or issues that may be imminent.
• We’ll carefully connect dots. Some cracks and defects begin to tell a story of a more significant structural issue.
• Make clear and concise recommendations on issues we find.
• Report on the positives too.
