Services
Pre-Purchase Home Inspections
Our pre-purchase home inspections provide comprehensive evaluations of residential properties before finalizing purchases. Certified inspectors examine all accessible areas from foundation to roof, identifying potential issues that could cost thousands post-move-in. Clients receive detailed reports with HD photos and on-site verbal summaries to support informed decision-making during real estate transactions.
Commercial Property Inspections
Commercial property inspections assess structural integrity and mechanical systems for business properties. Our certified inspectors evaluate heating, plumbing, electrical systems, and life safety components according to InterNACHI standards. Reports help commercial buyers understand property conditions and negotiate repairs or pricing adjustments before finalizing purchases.
Mould Inspections
Mould inspections identify potential mold contamination through visual assessments and lab-tested samples. Certified inspectors check moisture intrusion points and collect samples for independent analysis. Results determine risk levels and recommend remediation actions, ensuring safe living environments for families concerned about indoor air quality.
Pre-Sale Home Inspections
Pre-sale home inspections help sellers identify property issues before listing. Comprehensive evaluations cover all major systems and components, allowing sellers to address problems proactively. This process minimizes post-offer negotiations and helps achieve better sale prices through transparent disclosure of property conditions.
Air Quality Inspections
Air quality inspections assess indoor environmental hazards through specialized testing. Certified inspectors identify potential contaminants affecting respiratory health, providing lab-verified analysis of air quality issues. Reports guide remediation efforts for homeowners concerned about ventilation problems or airborne pollutants in residential and commercial spaces.

Report
We just completed our pre-buying home inspection with Brent. He was so detailed in his report and took the time to explain things to us during the inspection. He also would answer any questions about little things we were worried about. He also gave us tips on things to watch for as time goes by in our home. When we need another inspection we will be using him again for sure!!
