When you're buying
a home, our home inspection service will
help you learn all about your future home -- giving you
peace of mind that it's built solid, in good working
condition and free of major defects.
When we identify an area of concern or defect, we explain how major or minor
it is, how soon it should be addressed and about how much repairs should cost.
Plus, we'll teach you how to maintain your home once you move in.
We talk and write in
plain language, so there are no mysteries and no misunderstandings.
Our report is written in plain language and documented with digital photography
so that anyone can understand the condition of the home and what the important
takeaways are -- no interpreter needed. As a result, you'll feel confident that
the home you've chosen is the right one for you and you'll have the knowledge
you need to complete the purchase of your home.
Do you know what a 'fascia' is? Many home buyers don't
either. You've come to the right place.
We fully understand how exciting -- and stressful - buying your first home can
be. There's so much to learn to make sure you've chosen the right house. We can
help.
Whether you're buying a brand new home or a home that's fifty years old, we'll
get to know your house top to bottom, inside and out. Along the way,
we'll teach you how the systems in the home work together to provide a safe and
enjoyable place to live and, what you'll have to do to maintain your home after
you move in. Plus, we'll define any technical term you can throw at us in language
you'll understand.
*For your reference, a
'fascia' is the vertical board which runs around the
perimeter of the roof to which
a gutter would be attached. Fascias are used to hide
the ends of roof rafters.
Is the home more than
25 years old? No problem.
You may have chosen to buy an older home because it's near work and family or
in a great school district. Whatever the reason, you'll likely have some work
to do on an older home - and that's to be expected.
What you want to know is whether the house is structurally and mechanically sound
and in good working order - and our inspection will focus on just that. Plus,
we'll identify any repairs that are purely cosmetic in nature and the things
you'll need to do to maintain the home after you move in. Our expertise comes
from major home renovation, so we especially equipped to help you understand
how to think about the condition of an older home and the work and the care than
an older home will require.
Is your latest investment
project a fixer-upper or complete renovation?
You'll likely have a list of cosmetic repairs to make - anyone who walks through
the home can easily see what needs to be done. What you really want to know is
whether your house is structurally and mechanically sound - and our inspection
will focus on just that.
Our expertise comes from major home renovation, so we especially equipped to
help you understand how to think about the condition of an older home and the
work you'll need to do to get it ship shape for the future homeowners who will
