The Home Inspection

You’re not just buying that beautiful master suite or stone-lined fireplace, “you’re also buying any problems lurking in the walls or the crawl space or the attic.  The home inspection is your chance to avoid those problems—

A typical inspection starts at the roof and ends at the foundation, with stops in between at every major house system (Plumbing, Electrical, Heating, Air Conditioning, Structural, etc.). 

The home  inspection, completed by our licensed professional inspector  starts about $350 and increases depending on size and options of the house.  Average inspection costs are about $500 and takes 2 to 3 hours, depending on the size and age of the house.

Even new  construction homes need inspecting.
