COMPLETE HOME INSPECTION

A complete house inspection is a visual, non-invasive check of the structure, foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, heating/cooling system and built-in appliances. A home inspection can detect issues that are not seen on a simple walk-through or visit to a property. After our home inspection, a report with photos and description of imperfections, description of deficiencies, and working order of the property will be sent to the client within 24 hours:
