"I've seen the place and even had my Uncle Ernie take a look...everything seems OK, no real big issues...do I really need a professional inspection?

Information icon

Do you perform repairs as well as doing the inspection?

Answer icon

NO, we don't do any repairs to your building.  The reason is that this would present me with a conflict of interest.  As an example: if I also did HVAC repairs and replacements then it could be said I was siting defects on your unit(s) simply as a matter of doing a "bait & switch-type" of inspection meant not to give you the information but, to "up-sell" you for the purposes of getting me more of your money.

Information icon

What all do you charge for doing an inspection?

Question icon

We charge one, single fee for each type of inspection : there are no "processing fees", "administrative fees", or any other type of charges added on: the price you pay is the price we quote and nothing more!

Information icon

Does the seller get a copy of my home inspection?

Question icon

NO, the seller of the property your interested in does NOT get a copy of your report : the report is for you and you alone to use for your purposes - I work for you not the seller.  Since the report is your property you are free, if you want, to share it in-part or in-whole but, I will never give a report to anyone except you!

Information icon

What all is involved in your inspection?

Question icon

I look at everything and anything I can get my eyes on and if there is something that I can not see then I will also let you know that as well.  

Information icon

Will your inspection report tell me how much longer something will last or when it will need to be replaced?

Question icon

NO.  I wish I could be able to do this...it would be awesome but, the best I can do is let you know what the average, usable life expectancy is for something so you can plan accordingly.
