Eagle Eye, LLC Home Inspections offers inspection services according to your needs. There are many times when an inspection will give you an advantage. If you are buying a home, getting a home inspection means you know about any problems and their solutions before you move in. If you are selling a home, getting a home inspection helps ensure you are complying with full disclosure laws, and means you can consider selecting contractors rather than waiting for the buyer to do so. If a new home "builder warranty" from a builder is still in force, a home inspection by a professional can let you know whether the builder/contractors did the job correctly and completely. If you are a home owner, a property inspection will inform and assist you in maintaining your home in top condition. Radon testing is available upon request. Home preservation is essential by catching small problems before they become big surprises.
STANDARD HOME INSPECTION - We will need to know the age and square footage of the home. Please contact us for pricing.
RADON AIR TESTING – A 48 hour test plus lab time. Please contact us for pricing.
How long will it take?
Time is allowed depending on the size, age, and condition of the home. A thorough home inspection of 1000-2000 sq. ft. will typically average a minimum of 2 ½ -3 ½ hours.
Who should attend?
I encourage you (or trusted representative) to participate in the inspection process. During this consultation, you will gain visual reinforcement of your inspection report and are free to ask questions at any time during your home inspection. This is your opportunity to get to learn about your home, how it operates, what may be required for home preservation, and to discuss any areas of concern. I will discuss the findings of the report with you to make sure that you understand the information contained in it, and phone consultation is available to answer any questions that you might have in the future.
I will conduct a thorough inspection of your home, inside and out. Here are some of the many items I'll be looking at during your home inspection:
