What is a Home Inspection?
A home inspection performed by a trained and licensed inspector provides unbiased insight into the condition of the home so buyers understand current and potential issues that may result in additional expense.
Why Should I Invest in a Home Inspection?
Purchasing a home is one of the largest expenses that most individuals will incur in their lifetime. This expense can often result in a fruitful investment, but also presents significant risk when unforeseen repairs require additional expenditure.
​
A thorough and non-invasive assessment of the home will be conducted on all major components including the following:
​
-
Roof
-
Attic
-
Plumbing
-
Heating/Cooling
-
Basement/Foundation
-
Electrical
-
Interior/exterior condition
​
The home inspection also provides invaluable education regarding your new home with a level of detail regarding key components that would otherwise not be revealed during the standard real estate transaction process.

Radon Testing
Radon is a radioactive odorless and tasteless gas that is emitted during the natural breakdown of uranium in the earth. Radon is released as a gas during this process and can enter the interior of buildings through penetrations in the foundation. It can be found across all regions of the United States and in any type of building.
Why is it Important?
Prolonged exposure to radon can result in certain types of pediatric and adult cancers, including lung cancer. According to the EPA, radon is the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers in the United States. Testing for radon provides a non-invasive and inexpensive means of assurance for the safety of your family. Speak with us to learn more about the benefits and process for conducting radon testing in your new home.
Water Testing
Water testing is offered as a means to evaluate the safety of the drinking water in your new home. Depending on the source, complexity and components of your water system we will work with you to develop a water testing strategy.
Why is it Important?
Water testing identifies potentially harmful contaminants to provide additional peace of mind for the safety and wellbeing of your family. It is important for new home owners to fully understand the source of their water, components of their water supply system and the profile of the water they will be consuming.
