What I Inspect
I will conduct a thorough inspection of your home, inside and out.
As a TREC Licensed and NACHI-certified professional home inspector, I have the knowledge and expertise to provide you with a thorough and professional, non-intrusive, visual inspection of your home, from roof to foundation.
Outside the home, I will check the exterior walls, roof, driveway, deck, etc., then I will move inside to examine the walls, ceilings, floors, doors, and windows. The heating, air-conditioning,plumbing, and electrical systems will all be examined to ensure that they function as intended. Bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms receive a thorough check, along with the attic and basement or crawl space.
Here are some of the many items I'll be looking at during your home inspection:
- Foundation and support structure
- Fireplaces
- Roof systems
- Safety controls
- Water heater
- Ventilation
- Electrical capacity & components
- Structural integrity

All these options must be cautiously weighed and a professionally performed Home inspection can direct you to a better informed decision.
