Termite Inspections

We follow the stringent guidelines and Inspection Standards of the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (NACHI). The inspector typically spends 2 1/2 to 3 hours or about 1 hr. per 1,000 sq. ft. of home space performing a thorough, visual, functional and operational inspection of the many structural and mechanical components of the home. The inspection includes an evaluation of such important elements as: Grounds, Foundation, Structural, Attics, Roofs, Plumbing, Electrical, Heating, Air Conditioning, Appliances, etc. Additional available services include items such as Irrigation, Pools, Hot Tubs etc. A detailed report written in language that you can understand, will be furnished by the end of the day. We feel that a verbal consultation is a normal part of the inspection process, and we are also available for additional consultation, if you should need.

Inspections are meant to provide information about the condition of the property so that you can determine if it fails or passes your expectations and/or needs. We are not municipal or code compliance inspectors that have the authority to pass or condemn a home or building, however, we do examine, test, and report on systems and components according to the standards of practice set forth by (Inter-NACHI). We will clearly communicate the top priorities amongst the issues reported, so you know what to focus on in negotiations.

The best time to contact us is when you are in the **contract stage** of the buying process. Once the contract has been accepted by both buyer and seller, the allotted "inspection days" start counting down.
