Scott walks you through every detail with clear explanations, answering your questions on-site and delivering easy-to-understand reports promptly. You’ll know exactly what you’re dealing with before you sign.
Buyer & Seller Inspections
Buying or selling? We’ve got you covered. For buyers, our inspection reveals exactly what you’re getting – no surprises after closing. For sellers, we identify issues before they become deal-breakers, helping you sell faster and with confidence. Either way, you’ll make better decisions with complete information.
Maintenance Inspections
You service your car and get regular check-ups. Why not your home? Our annual maintenance inspections cost less than full inspections while keeping your biggest investment in top shape. Spot small problems before they become major expenses – saving you money and stress down the road.
Rental, New Construction, & Warranty
Starting fresh? We inspect new builds to catch what code enforcers miss – they protect the city, we protect you. Moving into a rental? Our thorough inspections give you peace of mind before you sign. Home warranty about to expire? We’ll document everything before your coverage ends.
Environmental Testing
Your health depends on what you can’t see. We test for hidden dangers like radon gas, mold, well water contamination, and septic system issues. These silent hazards can affect your family’s health and your home’s value. Get tested today – because peace of mind starts with knowing your home is safe.
MFD Home Foundation Certifications
Buying or refinancing a manufactured home? Many lenders require HUD certifications to approve financing. Scott’s certified expertise ensures your home meets all HUD standards so you can secure your loan or refinance at the best rates. Fast turnaround, professional reports – we make financing hassle-free.
Thorough & Detailed
