Additional Inspection Services

Pre-Listing Inspection

This inspection service is a thorough examination of a home that should be conducted before you list the property for sale. We’ll meticulously look over the home’s structure and systems, informing you of any defects we discover so that you can take any action you deem necessary to preserve or improve the value of the home.

New Construction Inspection

This investigative evaluation of new home construction should take place before the builder prepares to conduct a final walkthrough. We’ll look over the readily accessible structural components and installed mechanical systems, providing a full report of any defects so that you have time to request repairs before final closing.

New Construction Phase Inspections

It’s a wise decision to have new home construction inspected at multiple phases of the build to ensure that materials are safe and installed correctly. We’re able to perform this inspection service at as many phases as a client would like, ranging from pre-foundation to pre-final walkthrough.

11th Month Warranty Inspection

Before the 1-year builder’s warranty expires on your new home, it’s highly recommended to bring a professional home inspector in to ensure that the home remains in good condition. If we discover any issues during this comprehensive inspection service, we’ll make sure you fully understand what the specific defects may be so that you can consult your warranty agreement to see if repairs are covered.

Home Maintenance Inspection

The goal of this inspection service is to help homeowners prioritize, schedule, and carry out routine home maintenance. We’ll thoroughly assess the condition of the entire home, providing a full report of our findings that will detail any maintenance issues we discovered.

4 Point Inspection

An inspection service that’s often required in order to qualify for homeowner’s insurance, a 4 Point Inspection will provide detailed information about the condition of the home’s most essential components. This includes the roofing system, plumbing system, electrical system, and HVAC system.

Loan Draw Inspection

For a Loan Draw Inspection, we’ll help prevent the possibility of conflict or litigation between the builders and the bank which could otherwise result in long-term delays. We’ll begin by learning about the exact terms of the original loan agreement, before performing multiple inspections to ensure that the terms are being fulfilled and that the materials stored on-site are representative of the approved budget.

Re-inspections

After you and the seller of your prospective home have reached an agreement regarding your repair requests, we can return to the property after those repairs are made to perform a follow-up inspection. We’ll carefully investigate the state of repairs, ensuring that they were carried out as promised so that you can have peace of mind before agreeing to final terms.

Radon Testing

Radon Testing is highly important for a prospective home-buyer to consider scheduling before final closing. A naturally occurring gas, radon has radioactive properties that constitute a serious health risk for exposed individuals—and because the gas is odorless and invisible, it’s important to bring in a professional with the proper equipment to test a home.

Commercial Property Inspection

This inspection service is for clients who are preparing to purchase or invest in a commercial property. We’ll provide a comprehensive evaluation of the property’s condition, focusing our services primarily on light commercial buildings such as storefronts and strip malls.

Proudly Serving Colorado’s Western Slope

We inspect homes throughout Colorado’s Western Slope, including in Montrose, Delta Grand Junction, Telluride, Ridgeway, Oura, Cedaredge, Paonia, and Gunnison.
