A home inspection is a visual evaluation on accessible systems and components of a home and is intended to provide the client with a better understanding of the home.

Q:How long does an inspection take? A: For a 1800 square foot home we plan to be there 3.5 - 4 hours. The larger the home the longer the inspector will be on site.
Q: Do you  expect the client to be there the whole time during inspection? A: No. It is preferred that the client meet the inspector toward the end of inspection and plan to spend at least 20-30 minutes with the inspector going over items seen. Sometimes it takes 1 hour & 20 minutes. The objective is to make sure the client has a complete understanding of our discussion points. Due to Covid 19: Our Policy has currently changed. Please refer to Our Home Page.
Q: How soon can I expect the Inspection report? A: The State of NC requires the report be completed and available to the client no later than 3 days after the inspection was completed. Typically, the client will have their inspection report by the evening of the following day.
Q: Will the additional radon results report be accompanying the home inspection report? A: No. It is usually sent a day or two after receiving the home Inspection report depending on how long the test is set up for; which is most of the time a minimum of a 48 hour time period.
Q: Are you certified to perform a radon test? A: Yes, through Inspector Nation.
Q: Do you do the pest inspection also while performing the home inspection? A: No. We are not certified to perform the pest inspection, but are able to line a pest inspection company up to be at the property while we are present to do the home inspection. It usually takes 3-4 days before we get the report from them to forward on to the client.
Q: Are you certified to perform Indoor Air Quality Sampling Collections and Mold sampling? A: Yes, Through Inspection Nation and Assured Bio Lab.
