Services
Whole House Inspections
Our comprehensive whole house inspections evaluate structural integrity, electrical systems, HVAC, plumbing, and major appliances. Inspectors follow ASHI standards to identify habitability issues, providing on-site reports with photographic documentation. Clients receive a summary of critical concerns and recommendations for addressing defects.
Termite Inspections
Licensed inspectors conduct visual assessments for wood-destroying insects, checking accessible areas for active or inactive infestations. Reports document damage evidence and treatment history. We also perform structural inspections for lenders when termite damage is observed, included at no extra charge with whole house inspections.
Radon Inspections
We perform 46+ hour radon tests using tamper-proof monitors placed in lowest habitable areas. Results provide average concentration levels meeting EPA guidelines. Inspections require closed-building conditions for accurate measurements, with reports typically available by email the same day.
Septic System Inspections
Visual evaluations of septic tanks and leaching systems identify visible defects. Inspectors assess aerobic and anaerobic systems, with testing fees varying based on riser installation and required excavation. Clients receive detailed reports explaining system conditions and maintenance needs.
Well Inspections
We conduct 24-hour EPA-certified tests for coliform and E. coli bacteria, plus 20-30 minute quantity assessments measuring gallons per minute. These evaluations ensure water safety and supply adequacy for residential properties relying on private well systems.
