What a Home Inspection Is, and What It Isn’t
We Inspect
Accessible systems and components, visible conditions, operation of appropriate equipment and representative components at the time of inspection.
We Document
Significant defects, safety concerns, maintenance items and conditions that may warrant further evaluation.
We Explain
Your inspector helps put findings into context and answers questions about what was observed.
We Report
You receive a clear, photo-rich digital Spectora report, typically delivered the same day.
Scope clarification: A home inspection is a visual evaluation of accessible conditions at the time of inspection. It is not technically exhaustive, destructive testing, a code-compliance inspection, or a guarantee against future problems.
