Residential Inspections.
Before you buy, check with AHI.
Every house is more than a collection of rooms; it’s where memories are made, gatherings are held, and what families call “home.” Whether you’re buying, selling, listing, or investing, our goal is the same as yours: to eliminate surprises and make sure your home lives up to its fullest potential.
From the roof to the foundation, our holistic, comprehensive home inspection process looks at the entire home to identify major issues, builder oversights, and maintenance concerns. We will also find defects others might miss using advanced, non-invasive technology, so hard-to-spot issues don’t become major problems.
Buying a home is one of the most important financial decisions you’ll ever make. Schedule with us so you can make an informed and confident decision.

Get more confidence. Add the following services.
For the utmost confidence and most complete inspection, we provide the following additional services.
Structural Inspection
Get the foundation for extra confidence and check the structural integrity of your home. Highly recommended for older homes and homes with any visible signs of movement or cracking.
Wood Destroying Insect Inspection
We will provide an ODAFF1 form after inspection which is frequently required by the lender.
Sprinkler Inspection
Don’t let a convenient feature turn into a huge hassle. Save green and keep your lawn pristine. Let us check your sprinkler system to ensure proper operation.
Pool & Spa Inspection
Don’t get drowned by costly repairs. Pools and spas are lots of fun but they can be costly and are a potential safety concern. Have us take a look so you know the current conditions.
Mold Testing
Don’t let mold make you or your loved ones sick or damage your home. Highly recommended for homes with any moisture issues or suspicious staining.
Water Quality
Make sure your family’s drinking water is clean and safe. Let us test the water so you know if action is needed. Highly recommended for properties with well water.

Keep your home’s septic system running smoothly. If your home is on a septic system, we highly recommend a septic inspection. We also recommend this as a routine inspection at least every two years.
Radon Gas Testing
Keep your family safe and make sure your home isn’t at risk for radon gas exposure. Highly recommended for homes with basements.
Level-Two Fireplace Inspection
Don’t run the risk of fire, smoke inhalation, or carbon monoxide poisoning. This comprehensive camera inspection is highly recommended for older homes, especially with wood-burning fireplaces.
