SERVICES

Home Inspections

 

The number one reason to hire us for your home inspection is to be properly informed! Choosing the best home inspection company is a wise decision. Know what you are buying or selling, know what you are negotiating for. If you and your realtor have all the information about a home, you can make the best decision about the property. It may be walk away, it may be negotiate for considerations, it may be negotiate for repairs, it may be list it a bit lower or higher because of the current condition. The best decision may also be buy it.  We simply inspect the home, and inform you completely on the condition of the home. When you have all the information, you can make the best decision for you.
 

Roof Inspections

 

During a roofing inspection, we climb up on the roof and issue reports on:

 

  • Possible movement

  • Condition of roofing materials

  • Ridges, caps and drip edges

  • Soundness of drains, downspouts, and gutters

  • Flashing around roof pipes, chimneys, vents, valleys and mounting of HVAC units

 

If the roof does not require repairs, the roofing company will then estimate the remaining years of life for a roof and certify its inspection. The certification is good for two to five years, depending on local custom. If the roof requires repairs, after the repairs are performed, the roofing company will then issue the roof certification.

 

Termite Inspections

 

Obtaining a termite clearance on a home before the close of escrow is a typical require- ment set forth by a borrower’s lender before a loan is funded. When lenders require termite clearances, they require what is known as a “Section 1″ clearance. A Section 1 clearance pertains to correcting conditions present in the structure which constitute actual wood damage or termite infestation.
