Jim Ullom did the inspection for us in May 2017. He was very thorough and honest. The inspection report we received afterwards was in a pdf format that is very specific and easy to read. This was my first time hiring a home inspector and he was very friendly and patient with me.

Our Process

How we do things:


1. THERE ARE NO DUMB QUESTIONS.

Home & Property Inspections can be intimidating. First-time buyers and Real Estate Moguls alike can get jitters. We make it simple for you. Ask us any & all your questions. Please. Our trained, experienced inspectors will guide you through the ins & outs of home & property inspections, from foundations & drainage to attic ventilation. They can even tell you who invented the flush toilet.

2. WE SERVICE BUYERS, SELLERS, REALTORS…

Our customers have included home buyers, sellers, realtors, small businesses, manufacturing centers, and more. We’ve inspected churches, theaters, farms, hotel chains, and hot dog stands. Each property has a story to tell. We’re ready to hear yours next.

3. YOUR INSPECTION & REPORT.

Our AHIT-Certified Home & Property Inspectors will typically take between 2-3 hours to perform a 300-point inspection upon a standard size home & / or property. Once completed, they will compile their research into a report which will be emailed to you, typically within 2 business days. Pictures and video snippets available upon request.

4. PREVENTION IS THE BEST MEDICINE.

Our team offers preventative maintenance & seasonal inspections on your home and property to help make sure your investment is safe and secure for years to come. We also offer specialty and safety inspections including Radon Testing & Detection, Pest Inspections, Mold Detection, Water Testing, and Property Condition Assessments.
