Inspection Overview
Depending on the size and condition of the home, a thorough home
inspection will take no more than four hours, usually between an hour and a half and three hours. Ideally, you will accompany
your inspector during the consultation, so that you will have visual reinforcement of your written report.
We
take our inspection reports seriously. Every inspection is a complete and thorough analysis of all the major systems and
components in the home. The report includes a clear description of what we've found with any problem areas noted,
so you can easily identify them. Our inspectors also provide a free telephone consultation after your inspection.
