Pre-sale inspection services.
Find issues before going to market and get the best price on your property.

You can either inform potential buyers of the issues up front or fix them in advance, ensuring you’re getting the best possible price on your property. Either way, scheduling a pre-sale inspection avoids surprises and puts you in the driver’s seat.
Guided by state-of-the-art-technology, our professional team can find issues others might miss, so you can make the best decision possible. Before you go to market, schedule a pre-sale inspection with us and get the best price for your home or commercial property.

Wood Destroying Insect Inspection

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

Septic System Inspection
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.
