My Inspection Services
Comprehensive coverage for every stage of the buying and ownership process.
Residential Inspections
Residential inspection services are a complete evaluation of the home’s major systems and components. I take time to walk through the property with you, explain what I find in clear terms, and follow up with a thorough Spectora report delivered within 24 hours.
Commercial Inspections
My commercial inspection services are designed for buyers and business owners who need a reliable evaluation of a commercial property before making a commitment. I identify structural, mechanical, and system-level concerns so you can confidently move forward.
Radon Testing
Radon is a colorless, odorless gas and the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. It can be present in nearly any property regardless of age or location. I offer professional radon testing to help you understand the air quality in your potential new home.
Mold Testing
Mold can develop in areas that are easy to miss during a standard walkthrough. My mold testing service identifies the presence and concentration of mold spores so you know what you are dealing with before closing.
Sewer Scope Inspections
A sewer scope lets me send a camera through the main sewer line to look for blockages, root intrusion, pipe damage, or other issues that would not be visible from the surface. It is one of the most valuable add-ons for older homes.
Water Testing
If the home uses well water or if you want extra assurance about water quality, my water testing service analyzes the water supply for common contaminants and delivers results you can actually understand.
WDO (Termite) Inspections
Wood-destroying organisms like termites and carpenter ants can cause serious structural damage over time. My WDO inspection identifies active infestations and existing damage so you are not caught off guard after closing.
New Construction
New doesn’t always mean perfect. My new construction inspection evaluates the property before your final walkthrough with the builder, giving you an independent set of eyes before you sign off.
Pre-Drywall Inspections
The pre-drywall phase is one of the best opportunities to catch framing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC issues before they are sealed behind walls. I evaluate these systems while they are still visible and accessible.
Pre-Listing Inspections
Sellers who get ahead of issues tend to have smoother transactions. A pre-listing inspection gives you a clear picture of your home’s condition before it hits the market, so there are no surprises during the buyer’s inspection.
Septic Inspections
For homes on septic systems, a dedicated inspection of the tank and drain field is essential. I evaluate the components of the system and flag any concerns that could turn into costly repairs.
Well Inspections
If the property draws water from a private well, I inspect the pump, pressure tank, and related components to ensure the system is functioning properly and safely.
Frequently Asked Questions
Buying or selling a home can be a stressful experience, but I’m here to ensure you know what to expect during your home inspection.
A standard home inspection covers the property’s major systems and visible components, including the foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and built-in appliances. The goal is to give you an accurate understanding of the property’s current condition so you can make an informed decision.
Most residential inspection services run between two and four hours, depending on the size and age of the property. Larger homes or those with more complex systems may take a bit longer. I am never rushed, and I do not cut corners to get out the door faster.
I strongly encourage buyers to attend. Walking through the property with me gives you context for the findings in the report and a chance to ask questions in real time. Many people find it one of the most useful parts of the entire buying process.
No. A home inspection is not a pass/fail evaluation. It is an objective assessment of the property’s current condition. Every home will have findings, and the report is designed to help you understand which ones matter most and what your options are.
You can, but it is rarely a good idea. Home inspection services exist to protect you from purchasing a property with significant undisclosed issues. Skipping it means taking on risk without information. In most cases, the cost of the inspection is a small fraction of the issues it could help you avoid.
I send your completed Spectora report directly to your email within 24 hours of the inspection. It includes photographs, descriptions of each finding, and clear guidance on what warrants attention. It can be viewed on any device and shared easily with your agent.
