We encourage you to join us during your inspection. Walking through the property together gives us the chance to show you everything you need to know about your home. Feel free to ask questions or raise concerns at any time during the process.
Our goal is to ensure you’re completely satisfied with the inspection. We’ll work for you until all your questions are answered. To ensure your confidence, payment is only due after the inspection is completed to your satisfaction.
Choosing the right home inspector is an important decision. Unlike most professionals, you likely won’t meet us until the inspection appointment.
Inspectors vary in qualifications, experience, equipment, and pricing, but the quality of your home inspection ultimately depends on the inspector’s dedication.
If you choose us to inspect your new home, we promise to give you our very best effort. Your trust in us is an honor, and we are committed to providing a thorough and professional inspection.
This is our promise to you.
To get the most out of your inspection, it’s important to review these materials:
1. Standards of Practice: Familiarize yourself with the Home Inspection Standards of Practice to understand what is covered during the inspection.
2. Code of Ethics: Review the Code of Ethics to learn about the professional standards I follow.
3. Inspection Agreement: Read and sign the inspection agreement before we begin. This outlines the scope of the inspection.
4. Inspection Report: Go through the full inspection report, not just the summary, to get a complete understanding of the findings.
5. Home Maintenance Book: I’ll provide you with an InterNACHI® Home Maintenance Book at the end of the inspection, which includes valuable tips on maintaining and repairing your home.
Taking the time to review these resources will help you feel informed and confident about your inspection and your property.
A home inspector’s main responsibility is to evaluate and report on the condition of a home as it was on the day of the inspection. The inspector is a generalist, not a specialist, and the report is based on observations made during the inspection.
It’s important for homeowners to understand that homes naturally wear out over time. Parts of the home may break, leak, or stop working, and a home inspection does not predict these future events. Inspections also do not include warranties or guarantees that no issues will arise after the inspection.
The inspection focuses on identifying material defects that are visible at the time of the inspection. While thorough, the process may not reveal every issue that exists or could develop in the future. Ultimately, ongoing maintenance and repairs are the homeowner’s responsibility.
