FULL Home Inspection
Our Full Home Inspection has been developed to inform you of the condition
of the property you are purchasing. It is like giving the house a physical
check up. If we discover problems or symptoms of problems we will help you
understand the significance of the issue, why it is a problem, what the
implications are and recommend how to correct the problem.
Our standard whole house
home inspection is designed following
American Society of Home
Inspectors, (ASHI) and The National
Association of Certified Home Inspectors (NACHI)
standards of practice. These standards are minimum
requirements for a home inspection so we may often, but not always, exceed the
standards when appropriate.
We start our inspection by
discussing what you can expect and how you can participate in the inspection
process. After we review and sign our
Pre-Inspection Agreement
we provide an extensive visual non-destructive examination of the homes
major systems, including but not limited to:
- the heating and air conditioning,
- the structural components,
- fireplaces and solid fuel burning
appliances,
- the interior components of walls
ceilings, windows and doors,
- plumbing and electrical systems,
- the roof, the attic,
- the foundations,
basements/crawlspace,
- garages, porches and decks and
grounds,
- and major kitchen and laundry
appliances.
- other inspections as requested, i.e.
Radon, Septic, Lagoon, Mold, etc.
Our standard home
inspection requires 2 - 4 hours, or as long as necessary on site.
We encourage you to attend the inspection and ask questions during the
inspection. To meet your timing needs we provide 2 types of customized
inspection reports. Our digital picture and narrative inspection report is
delivered the same day via a secure internet site, CD, fax or mail. If your
needs are immediate we provide a narrative check list style report. Both types
of reports far exceed the tightest standards.
We are available to schedule your Home
Inspection 6 days a week, Monday thru Saturday. We provide flexible hours only
needing 1 hour before it gets dark so we have time to fully evaluate the
exterior of the home. We encourage our clients to accompany our home inspector
to ask questions and discuss the conditions of the property. The normal
inspection takes 2-3 hours at the property. Once the inspection is completed the
inspector will return to the office to research and write your custom report
which will be delivered within 24hours.
