How Our Home Inspection Process Works
We keep the inspection process simple so you always know what to expect. Here's how it works from start to finish.
ADDITIONAL INSPECTION SERVICES
Pre-Listing Inspection
Before listing your home for sale on the local market, we encourage you to have it professionally inspected. By having us thoroughly inspect the entire home, you’ll have a chance to address potential existing issues that may have otherwise gone overlooked—helping to prevent problematic negotiations with prospective buyers.
Pre-Drywall Inspection
A pre-drywall inspection is a crucial step in the construction process of a building or home. It typically occurs after the framing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC rough-ins have been completed but before the drywall is installed. A thorough pre-drywall inspection helps ensure that the building is constructed safely, according to approved plans, and in compliance with building codes and regulations. It can help identify any issues early in construction, saving time and money on costly repairs or modifications later.
Our company performs pre-dry wall inspections in accordance with the Inspector Nation Standard of Practice for Pre-Dry Wall Home Inspections.
11th Month Warranty Inspection
If you’ve recently bought a new home, it’s likely that the builder provided a limited one-year warranty. This inspection service needs to be scheduled while that warranty is still active so that we can determine if any defects have emerged since final closing. Depending on what we discover, you may be able to use your warranty toward financial assistance for certain repairs and improvements.
Home Maintenance Inspection
Maintaining a home can become an uphill battle if the proper maintenance isn’t conducted on a routine basis. We’ll help you stay on track, inspecting your home to seek out existing maintenance issues—and going on to provide advice and strategies for resolving those issues so that you can most effectively keep your home in good condition.
Commercial Property Inspection
This inspection service is available for most light commercial properties, ranging from small business spaces, to restaurants and warehouses. We’ll evaluate the existing strengths and weaknesses in the property’s construction, comprehensively going over any deficiencies we discover so that you aren’t blindsided by unexpected issues after already closing on a pending investment.
4 Point Inspection
You’ll find that many home insurers require a home to meet minimum property standards before you’ll be eligible for any sort of insurance policy. That’s where this inspection comes into play—revealing the condition of four critical areas of the home: the roofing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems. This information should satisfy the requirements for most major home insurers.
Re-inspections
The results from our full inspection of your prospective home more than likely indicated at least a few defective areas of the property. If subsequent negotiations led to your repair requests being granted, then you should contact us for a re-inspection once the work is completed. We’ll come back to the property, ensuring that the home is now restored to good condition so that you can move forward without worrying about loose ends.
General Pest Control
Our personalized pest control services are tailored specifically to meet the unique needs of your home and lifestyle. We take the time to assess your property, identify current or potential pest concerns, and develop a customized treatment plan designed for long-term protection. Whether you’re dealing with an active infestation or looking to prevent future issues, our targeted approach ensures effective results with minimal disruption. With our commitment to quality and customer care, you can trust that your home is in capable hands.
New Construction Inspection
Contact us before the builder is set to perform a final walkthrough on your new home, and we can set up this comprehensive inspection service that will help you protect your investment. We’ll carefully inspect the completed areas of the structure and any installed mechanical systems, notifying you of any issues we discover so that action can be taken to keep your bank account from being hit by avoidable repair bills.
Mold Inspection & Sampling
We will thoroughly inspect the home for potential microbial growth, high humidity levels, and water intrusion. In addition, we check the humidity levels of each room and take an air quality sample of your HVAC system. Based on the visual mold inspection, swabbing or tape lift samples will be taken and sent to EMSL Analytical.
Our inspectors are Certified Mold Inspection Specialists from Inspector Nation, performing related sampling and reporting in accordance with the Inspector Nation Standard of Practice for Mold Inspection & Testing.
Moisture Control and Remediation
With hot temperatures and high humidity in Eastern NC, elevated levels of wood moisture content are prevalent. We aim to control and monitor moisture through various methods, including vapor barriers, foundation venting, or even crawlspace encapsulation with a dehumidifier. Moisture remediation makes your home more energy-efficient and prevents mold growth.
Radon Testing
Radon gas cannot be smelled or even seen without the use of specialized equipment. That’s why it’s important to bring in a professional to test your prospective home for contamination by this naturally occurring, yet dangerous gas. We’ll use a state-of-the-art radon monitor to measure the radon levels inside the home, providing accurate results so that you know whether or not radon mitigation will be necessary.
Our company performs radon testing in accordance with the Inspector Nation Standard of Practice for Radon Measuring and Testing.
