- Proudly Serving The Greater Richmond Area
A residential inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of a property for purchase and covers major systems like roofing, plumbing, electrical, foundation, and more. The objective and detailed report provides the buyer with identified issues so they can decide on repairing or negotiating the price. Omit last two sentences: We do offer a discounted condo inspection where the exterior and roof are not inspected since they are maintained by the HOA. Thermal inspections are included.
A thorough pre-listing inspection is essential for homeowners preparing to sell their property. Our experienced inspectors conduct a comprehensive evaluation, identifying any potential issues or areas that require attention. This detailed report empowers you to make informed decisions, address concerns proactively, and present your home to potential buyers with confidence, ensuring a smooth and successful selling process.
If you have had your home built in the last year we offer a Builder's warranty inspection. Along with the general home inspection we inspect for construction defects, items that do not function or were not installed correctly or any other issues that are covered by your builder's warranty.
During the walkthrough, we will visually assess key areas such as the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical systems, and HVAC. However, please note that no written report will be provided. This service is ideal for buyers who are primarily interested in identifying any major red flags before making a purchase.
WE WILL CONDUCT A THOROUGH INSPECTION OF YOUR PROPERTY.
WHEN THE INSPECTION IS OVER AND WE HAVE COMPILED OUR NOTES, WE WILL DISCUSS OUR FINDINGS DURING THE HOME INSPECTION.
WE WILL SEND YOU A DETAILED REPORT ANNOTATING WHAT WE FOUND DURING THE INSPECTION.
WE PROVIDE FOLLOW-UP SUPPORT TO ENSURE YOU ARE FULLY EQUIPPED FOR THE NEXT STEPS IN YOUR PROCESS.
A home inspection includes checking for any structural issues such as foundation cracks, roof leaks, plumbing issues, electrical wiring, heating/cooling systems, insulation, windows, doors, chimneys, etc. A home inspection typically takes 2-3 hours, but can vary depending on the home’s size.
Ensure all inspection points are free from clutter, including any closets that might lead to a crawlspace or attic, and clearing some space around your home’s perimeter. It is also important to check the functionality of all built-in appliances, electric, and gas. If you don’t plan to attend the inspection, make sure your inspector has access to the home, and all pets are properly contained or moved.
A home doesn’t pass or fail an inspection. Instead, a home inspection is a thorough audit of your home’s components. In most cases, there will be concerns marked on your home inspection report, but these are strictly informative.
