What is a home inspection?

A home inspection is a non-invasive evaluation of a property’s visible and accessible systems and components, including the structure, roof, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems. It helps identify any existing or potential issues.

Why do I need a home inspection?

A home inspection provides critical insight into the condition of a home. Buyers use inspections to make informed decisions. Sellers use them to address issues before listing. Homeowners use inspections for maintenance planning and peace of mind.

How long does a home inspection take?

Most inspections take 2 to 3 hours, depending on the size, age, and condition of the property.

Our inspection fees vary based on the square footage, age, and location of the home. On average, inspections range from $400 to $600. Contact us for an exact quote.

How soon can you complete the inspection?

We typically offer inspections within 24–48 hours of your request, depending on availability.

Do I need to be present during the inspection?

You’re not required to attend, but we highly recommend it. You’ll gain valuable insight and can ask questions in real time.

What does the inspector look at?

Our inspectors examine:

• Roof, attic, and exterior

• Plumbing and electrical systems

• HVAC systems

• Windows, doors, floors, and ceilings

• Insulation and ventilation

• Safety issues and code concerns

When will I receive the report?

You’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-read digital report within 24 hours of the inspection. It includes photos, summaries, and recommendations.

What if issues are found?

Almost every home has some issues. Our report will help you understand the severity, suggest repairs, and prioritize what matters most.
