Pre-Listing Inspection
There are many benefits to a pre-listing inspection. This inspection should be scheduled before you list your home for sale. We’ll thoroughly assess the condition of the home’s readily accessible areas, giving you a chance to make repairs if necessary to maximize the value of your property and to inform prospective buyers of existing issues so that a smooth transaction can occur.
New Construction Inspection
When scheduled before the builder’s final walkthrough, this inspection can protect your investment by ensuring that the home is truly turn-key ready. If defective areas of the home are identified, the builders will still be on-site so that you’re able to schedule repairs at a mutually convenient time.
New Construction Phase Inspections
Phase Inspections should be scheduled before each major build phase of your new home. We’ll thoroughly assess the current progress of construction each time we arrive on-site, catching possible issues while they’re still relatively easy to correct.
Loan Draw Inspections
This service is offered to the banking industry. We will visit the property according to the draw schedule, meet with builders, and provide summaries and photographs of the progress.
Re-Inspections
An area of a home that was found to be defective during a previous inspection should be evaluated one more time once the appropriate corrections are in place. We’ll look back over the component(s) in question to determine if the repair work is sufficient and to make sure that other issues haven’t emerged.
Mold Inspection
As Certified Mold Assessors, we’re qualified to collect air samples for laboratory analysis. These will be used to identify a potential mold problem. We’ll investigate the readily accessible areas of the property, looking for obvious areas of mold and moisture intrusion that could facilitate mold growth in the near future.
Radon Testing
Radon is a naturally-occurring gas that slowly concentrates underground until it’s able to escape through the surface. If radon is able to enter a home, it can’t be detected by sight or smell alone – but it is still dangerous. We utilize state-of-the-art monitoring equipment to measure the level of radon in a home.
WDO/Termite Inspection
The damage caused to a home by termites and other wood-destroying organisms can be significant and expensive. We’ll carefully inspect a home’s structure for any signs of WDO activity and we look for evidence of prior treatments as well. If your financing requires it, we can provide Form NPMA-33 on site.
Water Testing
This inspection service will test the water of a home for contaminants that could pose a health risk to homeowners, their families, and their guests. Samples will be collected from the well and sent to a local laboratory for analysis.
Commercial Property Inspection
We can inspect light commercial buildings such as strip malls, offices, and store fronts for customers who want a better idea of a property’s condition before considering an investment. We’ll look at each readily accessible area to check for material defects, safety issues, and failing mechanical components.
