Our Services

A full home inspection is the foundation. From there, you choose exactly the add-ons and specialty services that fit the property — clear pricing, no bundled fluff.

The Base Service

Residential Home Inspection

A thorough, top-to-bottom evaluation of the property — roof, structure, foundation, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, windows, doors, and more. You get a detailed, photo-rich report so you know exactly what you are buying.

Optional Add-Ons

Ancillary Services

Every home buyer benefits from a more complete picture. Add only what you need — nothing is bundled or forced.

$250

Sewer Scope

Camera inspection of the main sewer line to catch blockages, root intrusion, and pipe damage before they become costly surprises.

$150

Radon Testing

Measure radon gas levels — a leading cause of lung cancer — so you can make an informed, healthy decision.

$175

Water Sampling

Lab analysis of well or tap water for safety and quality, especially important for rural properties.

$150 / structure

Detached Structures

Add shops, barns, garages, or outbuildings to your inspection for complete property coverage.

$250

Rapid Repair Estimator

Fast, line-item repair estimates that save days on negotiations and reclaim the balance of power — whether you are buying or selling.

$200

Protection Plans & Warranties

Full protection package — 90-Day Warranty, MoldSafe, 5-Year Roof Leak Protection, SewerGard & RecallChek — all five coverages for one price, for added peace of mind after closing.

New Construction

Phase & Warranty Inspections

Protect buyers during the build process and catch issues before they are covered or buried. Skilled labor is hard to find — just because it is new does not mean it is done right.

$250

Phase 1 — Footings & Foundation

Verify the foundation is done right before it is buried and impossible to see.

$250

Phase 2 — Pre-Drywall

Inspect framing, nail plates, and penetrations while everything is still exposed.

$450

Final Walkthrough

A complete inspection before you take the keys — because “new” does not always mean “done.”

Pre-Close Inspections

New homes have issues too. A pre-close inspection verifies workmanship before you sign, so problems are the builder's responsibility — not yours.

11-Month Warranty Inspections

Homes settle and sag the most after a build. Before your builder's one-year warranty expires, I document popped fasteners, loose shingles, cracked caulking, and more — issues the builder has to fix but may not tell you about.

Detailed component inspection
For Sellers

Pre-Listing Inspection

For sellers who want clarity before listing. Knowing the condition of your home up front reduces surprises, renegotiations, and time on the market — and creates clean, confident disclosure.

Certifications

Manufactured Home Foundation Certifications

Manufactured home purchases and refinances often require a permanent foundation certification. I inspect the foundation system against HUD and FHA guidelines and provide the documentation lenders need.

Quick response matters. Banks can take a while, so the sooner the better. Using me for this service alleviates friction and bottlenecks — reducing timelines and stress.

Deal Protection

Appraisal Discrepancy Verification

A bad appraisal can stall or kill a transaction or refinance. Appraisers cannot touch roofs, decks, or many structural elements — I can. I verify the roof, deck, structural components, moisture concerns, and safety items, then provide a full rebuttal report lenders can use.

  • Recover valuation or avoid unnecessary repair demands
  • Reduce renegotiation time and uncertainty
  • Clarity, neutral documentation, and deal stability
