Frequently Asked Questions

What does a residential home inspection include?

A residential home inspection covers the evaluation of the home’s structure, foundation, roof, plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, and more. Our inspectors provide a thorough review to identify any potential issues.

How long does an inspection take?

Typically, a home inspection takes 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size and condition of the property. We ensure every detail is thoroughly examined to provide an accurate report.

How soon will I receive my inspection report?

You will receive your detailed inspection report within 24 to 48 hours after the inspection. The report will be clear, comprehensive, and easy to understand

Do I need to be present during the inspection?

While it's not required, we recommend being present during the inspection to ask any questions directly. It also provides you the opportunity to understand the findings firsthand.
