WHY HAVE A BUILDING INSPECTION?

The purpose of a building inspection is to provide the owner or prospective owner with a report of the current condition of the visual and accessible structural and operating systems. It should be a complete and thorough evaluation of the building by an unbiased representative of the client. it should identify defects and deficiencies in the structural and operating systems, or their components, which will need attention, now or in the near future. This is especially important, if those items could cause great inconvenience or be costly to repair

Armed with the report and the knowledge obtained during the inspection, the Clients will be able to proceed with confidence. If necessary, they can obtain more extensive evaluations and estimates from repaid specialists, including labor and material costs, time and inconvenience involved in correcting the deficiencies.

 

WHY DO NEW HOMES NEED INSPECTIONS?

Local officials, in addition to administering zoning codes, are charged with the duty of assuring that buildings meet the minimum State structural and safety codes. Their responsibility does not extend to checking function, fit, or workmanship.

 

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?

Our inspectors observe and evaluate over 200 individual items within the structural assemblies, the main operating systems and sub-systems of a building to determine their condition. We invite our clients to be present during the inspection since it allows us to report observations and their significance, explain the operation of systems, offer tips on maintenance and energy conservation, and answer questions as they are brought up. At the conclusion of the inspection, which typically takes several hours, you will receive a Confidential Written Report that details all conditions observed.

Our service does not end with the issuance of the Report since we offer free phone consultations whenever necessary, even if it is several years later.
