Wake Forest's Premier Inspection Services

Pre-Listing Home Inspection

A pre-listing inspection can not only help expedite the selling process but potentially even increase the property's sale price.

Pre-Purchase Home Inspection

We will accompany you through a walkthrough and inspection of the home you’re interested in buying, and assess its condition using our multi-point home inspection checklist.

Pre-Drywall Home Inspection

It becomes increasingly difficult to inspect these important parts of your home when the drywall is installed, which means it's imperative to get a preemptive inspection.

11-Month Warranty Home Inspection

Most builders offer a one-year warranty on a new home. We perform a full home inspection before the builder’s warranty expires.

Home Maintenance Inspection

Our annual maintenance inspections include roof inspections, plumbing inspections, electrical inspections, foundation inspections, attic insulation inspections and building structure inspections.

Commercial Property Inspection

A commercial building inspection helps you identify potential problems before they become expensive repairs or even worse, an unsafe structure.

Indoor Air Quality Testing

Indoor air quality (IAq) has become a major concern when buying homes. Many materials used in new construction contain alarmingly high levels or toxic formaldehyde and harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Well Inspection

We provide thorough well flow testing services to ensure your private well delivers a reliable water supply. Our expert inspectors measure the flow rate in gallons per minute, assess water pressure, and evaluate the well's sustainability over time.

Septic Inspection

Not only can a septic tank inspection help you prevent major system failures and expensive repairs, but it also helps you ensure your septic system complies with environmental regulations.

Water Quality Tests

While public water systems must test and treat their water before distributing it, these tests only cover water that hasn't left the treatment plant.

Sewer Scope

We use a special camera to scope the sewer line to visualize any blockages that are interfering with the plumbing system’s proper drainage. Finding and addressing such problems now can head off catastrophic and expensive repairs later.

Termite Inspection

Whether you’re shopping for a home and suspect a termite issue, or you think your current home may be affected by termites, we can provide you with comprehensive testing, and help you understand your options for termite remediation if we do discover an infestation.

Mold Sampling

There are over 400,000 types of mold, and while there are only a few dozen that are toxic, exposure to many molds can lead to health problems. It can also cause structural damage to your house.

Radon Testing

Radon is a natural, radioactive, invisible, and odorless gas that is produced when uranium in the Earth’s crust decays and turns into radium. Radon is also the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer in the United States.

Frequently Asked Questions

A home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house, from the roof to the foundation. Home inspections are designed to protect the buyer, by revealing problems they might not have noticed otherwise.

Home inspections generally take 2 to 4 hours to complete. The duration of a home inspection depends on many factors such as the size of the home, the condition of the home, and the ability to access certain areas of the home (roof, crawl space, attic, etc.).

Although it is not necessary, we do recommend that you attend the inspection so you can ask questions and learn more about the home. You will learn a lot from the inspection report, but we always encourage you to attend!

It is important to note that no house is perfect. At the end of the home inspection process, we will provide a detailed report that describes the physical condition of the property, with images and videos highlighting what may need repair or replacement.
