My Inspection Services & Fees
Here's a list of our inspection services.
Feel free to ask us about additional types of inspections. We perform all of our inspections according to the Inspection Standards of Practice.
FULL HOME INSPECTION: $500
A home is probably the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, so it’s important to understand the condition of your investment. I’ll provide a non-invasive evaluation of the home’s accessible structure, systems and components. While a home inspection can’t reveal every concern that exists, it will significantly reduce your anxiety by arming you with the knowledge you need to make an informed home-buying decision.
INFRARED INSPECTION: $150
I use a state-of-the-art infrared camera to find problems that aren’t always apparent to the naked eye. An IR camera translates the heat signatures of objects into colors on a gradient scale, with higher temperatures appearing as lighter colors, and lower temperatures and wet areas appearing as darker colors. By evaluating these images, I can detect sources of energy loss, locate areas of moisture intrusion, pinpoint dangerous hot spots in the electrical system, and uncover other problems, such as wood-destroying pest and rodent infestations, as well as flue leaks in the chimney, which can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
ANNUAL HOME MAINTENANCE INSPECTION: $75
Especially if you’re a new homeowner, an Annual Home Maintenance Inspection can help you understand and plan for the demands of maintaining your home properly. Some tasks are seasonal, and some items require more frequent attention. Let me help you start on the path of responsible homeownership by identifying any issues, and educating you about what should be done each year to keep your home in top condition.
COMMERCIAL BUILDING INSPECTION: Contact Me
A commercial building inspection is meant to identify the current condition of the property as well as the cost that must be paid to make any of the necessary repairs.
Everything from the interior of the building to the ventilation and air conditioning system will be checked during a commercial building inspection.
Buy-Back Guarantee Is Included
If the home inspector misses a covered item, InterNACHI® - the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors - will buy the home. The Guarantee may be honored for up to 90 days after closing. Additional terms and conditions apply, and the details are available at www.nachi.org/buy. I include an InterNACHI® Buy-Back Guarantee with each certified home inspection.
