Elevate Home Inspections Services
11-Month Warranty Inspection
Before your builder’s one-year warranty expires, we perform a detailed inspection to uncover defects or issues that have developed since you moved in. This ensures you can have repairs made at the builder’s expense, protecting your investment for years to come. This inspection also includes a Home Maintenance Book from InterNACHI to help you care for your home, along with thermal imaging to identify hidden issues that may not be visible during a standard inspection.
Construction inspections
Construction inspections ensure that building projects meet safety, quality, and code requirements at every stage. Inspectors check structural elements, electrical and plumbing systems, materials, and overall workmanship to identify issues early, prevent costly mistakes, and ensure the project is safe, compliant, and built to last. This inspection also includes a Home Maintenance Book from InterNACHI to help you care for your home, along with thermal imaging to identify hidden issues that may not be visible during a standard inspection.
Mold Inspections
Mold Inspections involve assessing a property for signs of mold growth and conditions that may lead to mold development, such as moisture or water damage. A certified inspector will visually examine the home, check humidity levels, and may take air or surface samples to identify mold types and concentrations. Mold can pose health risks, especially for individuals with allergies or respiratory issues, and can also damage building materials. This inspection also includes a Home Maintenance Book from InterNACHI to help you care for your home, along with thermal imaging to identify hidden issues that may not be visible during a standard inspection.
Infrared Imaging (included in all general inspections)
Infrared Imaging is a non-invasive technology used during general home inspections to detect hidden issues that aren't visible to the naked eye. Using a thermal camera, inspectors can identify temperature differences behind walls, ceilings, and floors—revealing problems like moisture intrusion, missing insulation, electrical hotspots, and air leaks. This inspection also includes a Home Maintenance Book from InterNACHI to help you care for your home, along with thermal imaging to identify hidden issues that may not be visible during a standard inspection.
Well Inspections
Well Inspections evaluate the condition and safety of a property's private water well system. This includes checking the well’s structural integrity, pump operation, pressure levels, and water flow rate. Inspectors also typically recommend or perform water quality testing to ensure the water is free from contaminants such as bacteria, nitrates, or harmful chemicals. A well inspection is essential for homes that rely on private wells, helping ensure safe, clean drinking water and a properly functioning system. This inspection also includes a Home Maintenance Book from InterNACHI to help you care for your home, along with thermal imaging to identify hidden issues that may not be visible during a standard inspection.
General Home Inspections
General Home Inspections are comprehensive evaluations of a property's condition, typically conducted before buying or selling a home. A certified home inspector examines major components such as the roof, foundation, electrical system, plumbing, HVAC, and overall structural integrity. The goal is to identify any existing or potential issues, providing the client with a detailed report to make informed decisions about repairs, maintenance, or negotiations. This inspection also includes a Home Maintenance Book from InterNACHI to help you care for your home, along with thermal imaging to identify hidden issues that may not be visible during a standard inspection.
Radon Testing
Radon Testing is the process of measuring the levels of radon gas in a home. Radon is a naturally occurring, radioactive gas that can seep into buildings from the ground and is a leading cause of lung cancer. Since it is colorless and odorless, specialized equipment is used to detect its presence. Testing is typically done during a home inspection or when there are concerns about indoor air quality. If high levels are found, mitigation systems can be installed to reduce radon levels and ensure a safer living environment. This inspection also includes a Home Maintenance Book from InterNACHI to help you care for your home, along with thermal imaging to identify hidden issues that may not be visible during a standard inspection.
Speed, Accuracy, and a Free Homeowner’s Guide in Every Inspection

We will deliver our report within 24 hours of the conclusion of your home inspection, so that you can quickly access a full overview of our findings – and discuss them with us and your agent.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a home inspection?
A home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house, from the roof to the foundation. Home inspections are designed to protect the buyer, by revealing problems they might not have noticed otherwise.
How much does a home inspection cost?
Our home inspections start at $375. The cost will vary based on the square footage of the home, the age of the home, and location of the home. Call, text, or email us for a quote today!
How long does a home inspection take?
Home inspections generally take 2 to 4 hours to complete. The duration of a home inspection depends on many factors such as the size of the home, the condition of the home, and the ability to access certain areas of the home (roof, crawl space, attic, etc.).
Should I attend the inspection?
Although it is not necessary, we do recommend that you attend the inspection so you can ask questions and learn more about the home. You will learn a lot from the inspection report, but we always encourage you to attend!
What if the inspection report reveals problems?
It is important to note that no house is perfect. At the end of the home inspection process, we will provide a detailed report that describes the physical condition of the property, with images and videos highlighting what may need repair or replacement. The information provided is to allow a potential buyer to make an informed decision about moving forward with the transaction. It is not pass or fail.
