How a home inspection works
A home inspection is a non-invasive, visual and hands-on review of the property you're about to buy. Your inspector walks every accessible area of the home and operates the systems you'll use every day: running faucets and showers, cycling the heating and air conditioning, opening windows and doors, testing outlets and checking the electrical panel.
Our inspections follow a published standard of practice, so you know exactly what is covered. Nothing is taken apart and no damage is done to the home. Where something can't be safely reached or tested, the report says so, so you're never left guessing.

Benefits of having a home inspected
A home is likely the largest purchase you'll make, and the problems that matter most are often the ones you can't see on a walkthrough. Small issues such as a slow roof leak, a failing water heater or an overloaded electrical panel tend to get worse, and more expensive, the longer they go unnoticed.
An inspection gives you:
- Facts to negotiate with. Ask the seller to repair, credit or adjust the price before you close.
- A plan for the future. Know which systems are near the end of their life so you can budget for them.
- Peace of mind. Move in knowing the condition of the home, not hoping for the best.
Buying new construction?
Brand-new homes benefit from an independent inspection too. Builders work to tight schedules, and an inspection before your final walkthrough lets you hand the builder a clear list of items to finish while they're still responsible for them. Book it a day or two before the walkthrough, and ask about our new construction and 11-month warranty inspections.

A residential home inspection for houses, condos and townhomes
Whether you're buying a single-family house, a condo or a townhouse, a residential home inspection gives you an independent look at the property before your inspection period ends. Our buyer home inspection is a full home inspection: one visit, every accessible system, and a report that separates safety concerns and costly defects from routine maintenance.
A condo home inspection concentrates on what you will own and maintain inside the unit: the electrical panel, plumbing fixtures and supply lines, water heater, air handler and condenser, windows, sliding glass doors and interior finishes. We also note visible conditions on your balcony and nearby common elements so you can raise them with the association. A townhouse inspection adds the roof, exterior walls and attic wherever they belong to your unit.
Structural and defect findings in South Florida homes
Every general home inspection includes a visual structural home inspection of the foundation, slab, framing and roof structure. In Palm Beach and Broward County we pay close attention to cracking in concrete block walls and stucco, roof coverings worn by sun and storms, past water intrusion around windows and doors, older electrical panels and plumbing materials that insurers question, and air conditioning equipment near the end of its life.
Each home defect finding comes with photos and a plain-language explanation, so you and your agent can decide what to repair, request a credit for or simply plan for after closing. Most buyers also add the insurance reports their insurer will ask for on the same visit.
