•      I can provide a thorough Home Inspection, that can take anywhere from  2 - 3 hours or more, depending on age/sq. ft. of the home.
•      I also offer *Investor Walkthrough Consultations (see explanation below)
•      I invite clients to attend the home inspection with me, to assist in clearly communicating any issues.
•      I typically only do one inspection per day, and take my time with your inspection.
•      I may use several high-tech tools that other inspectors might not, from competing inspection organizations.
       I feel these may be necessary for your safety. 
•      For Full Home Inspections, I comply with the InterNACHI standards of practice, so you know what I'm expected to perform.

     Decks, stoops, porches, walkways, and railings.
     Eaves, soffits and fascia.
     Grading and drainage.
     Basements, foundations and crawlspaces. (I typically enter crawl spaces)
     Water penetration and foundation movement.
     Heating systems. (I can test for Noxious Gas leaks, and Carbon Monoxide presence)
     Cooling systems.
     Main water shut off valves.
     Water heating system.
     Interior plumbing fixtures and faucets.

In addition, we can also provide you with the following additional services, that are not part of the full home inspection:

*Investor Walkthrough consultation - For savvy property investors who don't need or want a "full" home inspection,
and are just looking for a second opinion on what may need to be replaced or repaired, to bring the property to a saleable condition,
we offer a low cost  Investor Walkthrough consultation. This event does not provide a binding contract, nor any written report, nor any documentation.
The Investor Walkthrough is not an inspection, and nothing will be tested during the walkthrough.
The consultation is basically an opportunity to walk through a potential investment property, along with a seasoned
inspector who will give verbal assessments of the homes major components. The Investor is encouraged to take notes, 
and ask any questions they may have about what they may see during the walkthrough.
We can provide trusted contractor business referrals as needed, for any systems and components being viewed.
Please understand that this does not constitute an "Inspection" and does not comply with any industry organizations
standards of practice.
