Just because you’re building a property from scratch doesn’t mean you should assume everything is flawless. Whether it’s human error or issues with materials, adverse situations that could lead to costly repairs can and do happen. Fortunately, a new construction inspection will catch these problems, and the earlier they’re identified, the less expensive you’ll pay for repairs if they’re not covered by warranty.

Some mold growth can be toxic, and mold spores can cause symptoms of mold exposure in some people. A mold inspection will tell you if your home has a mold problem, and identify the moisture source that is causing it. If you are selling your home, then it's important to have your home pre-inspected for mold to avoid delays for remediation, which could take a month or longer.

What is a 4-point home inspection? Put simply, it’s a shorter version of a comprehensive home inspection, and examines the main pillars of a home, including the roof and HVAC, plumbing and electrical systems. Many insurance companies require a 4-point inspection, especially for older homes, as part of their policies.

A sewer scope inspection is a video inspection of the sewer line leading from the house to the sewer system or septic tank. We'll check for obstructions, damage, or other issues such as root penetration, holes or cracks, pipe separation, and more. Some issues may not be affecting performance yet but could cause failure later as the problem worsens over time.

Commonly referred to as a termite inspection, Wood Destroying Organism (WDO) inspections look for more than just termites, including wood boring beetles and wood destroying fungus. Termites alone cause billions of dollars in property damage every year in the United States. Because they can be difficult to detect, a properly trained inspector is necessary to check for the presence of any WDOs in your home. WDO inspections are performed by a licensed third-party.
View DetailsWe will evaluate the faucets and showers in your current or prospective home and identify leaks and the quality of the water pressure. We’ll also determine the types of pipes used and find the main water shutoff valve.
The electrical system of a home is critical, and we’ll figure out the wiring type, test all outlets and make sure there is protection from electrical shorts. We’ll also evaluate the electrical panel.
During our home inspection, we’ll figure out how old the furnace and air conditioning systems are and determine if they’re working seamlessly or if they may need certain repairs and maintenance.
Our inspectors determine the age of the water heater and check for proper installation. We also determine the condition and give an estimate of the remaining life span of the water heater.
Our home inspectors will make sure there is proper ventilation in your laundry room; a dryer that isn’t ventilated right is a serious fire hazard.
A fire is every homeowner’s worst nightmare; our inspectors test smoke detectors and ensure that the garage wall, if present, has the proper fire rating. Also, we check the fireplace to make sure there are no issues.
We’ll identify any visible leaks, make sure the bathroom is properly ventilated and that the toilets are secured, among other things.
We investigate the attic to see if there is any structural damage, test how the ventilation is flowing and see if the insulation is in good shape.
We’ll look for damages, including missing siding, cracks and excessive soil contact to ensure pests cannot easily sneak their way in.
We check for possible foundation failure, indicated by cracks or settling.
Our inspectors check to ensure that the ground slopes away from the house, which prevents water from entering the home or causing damage to the foundation.
If accessible and visible, we look for roof damage or poor installation that may allow for water penetration. We also check the condition of the gutters and we can even use drone technology for a closer look!
WHI will test to make sure the garage door is working right and that everything is properly ventilated (if it’s not, it could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning). We also check for explosion risks if ignition sources are too close to the floor.
