Our Specialty
Home Inspections
Our home inspection services are extensive and will give you peace of mind. We report on your home from top to bottom, pointing out any deficiencies that we find and what major expenditures are necessary. We also highlight things you should watch out for, give you some home preservation tips, talk about safety concerns, and more. The report you get at the end of the inspection will go over everything in detail.
Protect Your Investment
Commercial Inspections
Commercial properties of all kinds can benefit from an inspection. We inspect offices, retail spaces, and investment properties with the same attention to detail as homes — ensuring your business investment is sound.
A Safe New Home
New Construction Inspections
Building a home from scratch is an extensive task and should be undertaken with the utmost safety and expertise. After finishing the home’s construction, it may be beneficial to schedule a new construction inspection. These types of inspections are performed at the completion of the construction, but prior to your final walkthrough.
View Hard-To-See Issues
Thermal Imaging
Even though traditional home inspections tend to be extensive, they can’t always pinpoint all of the problems a house may have. Some problems, such as leaks and water damage, can be almost invisible, meaning they’ll be difficult to see. In such cases, making use of thermal imaging will be a big help. Thermal imaging allows us to see places where there may be water damage and heat/air conditioning leaks in the structure of your home. This is a key tool in a home inspector’s toolbox that should always be utilized.
Prevent Future Repair Costs
Pre-Drywall Inspections
Pre-drywall inspections are performed before the interior walls are sealed, offering a unique opportunity to assess key structural and system components. We evaluate framing, plumbing, HVAC ducting, electrical runs, and insulation placement to catch costly or dangerous issues early in the build process. These inspections ensure construction is code-compliant and helps buyers move forward with peace of mind before drywall concealment. Learn more about what to expect from a detailed guide at InterNACHI’s Pre‑Drywall Inspection article.
Protect Your Property
Structural Pest Inspections
These inspections include a thorough examination of current or past infestations of wood destroying organisms (WDO) including dampwood termites, subterranean termites, carpenter ants, moisture ants, anobiid beetles, and wood decaying fungus. This can alert you to any possible structural issues with your property.
Taking Proactive Measures
Sewer Scopes
Cracked or damaged pipes can happen in any home. It may be from age, material, or tree root damage. Camera inspections of sewer lines can spot issues early and save homeowners money in the long run by avoiding major repairs.
Certify Your Manufactured Home
HUD/FHA Tie Down Certification
HUD/FHA tie down certifications are required for manufactured homes seeking government-backed financing. We provide compliant inspections and coordinate engineering reports to confirm that your home meets federal anchoring standards. Whether you’re buying, refinancing, or selling a manufactured home, this certification ensures lenders that your foundation and anchoring systems are secure and up to code — helping you close faster and with confidence. Learn why tie-down systems matter from InterNACHI’s Tie-Downs for Manufactured Homes article.
Breathe With Confidence
Mold & Air Quality Testing
Our mold and air quality testing services help ensure your home is safe from airborne allergens, mold spores, and moisture-related toxins. We use specialized sampling tools and lab testing to identify indoor contaminants that may affect your health. This service is ideal for homes with musty odors, past water damage, or residents with allergies or respiratory concerns. Know what you’re breathing — before it becomes a problem. Learn how this process works with InterNACHI’s “Air Sampling for Mold Inspections” guide.
