Residential Home Inspection

Comprehensive evaluation of a home’s major systems.

A residential inspection includes a detailed visual assessment of the structure, roof, exterior systems, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, and interior components. Inspections are performed in accordance with North Carolina Standards of Practice and include clear digital reporting with photo documentation.

Coastal & Elevated
Property Inspection

Focused inspection of construction common to coastal homes.

Coastal properties face unique conditions including salt air exposure, wind-driven rain, elevated construction, and high humidity. Inspections include attention to structural supports, flood vents, breakaway walls, exterior fasteners, roof systems, and moisture intrusion indicators common in coastal environments.

New Construction &
Final Inspection

Independent inspection prior to final walkthrough or closing.

Even newly constructed homes benefit from an independent inspection before acceptance. This evaluation focuses on visible workmanship, installation quality, and the functional performance of major systems.

Pre-Listing Inspection

Identify concerns before placing a home on the market.

A pre-listing inspection allows homeowners to address potential issues before listing. Identifying concerns early can help streamline negotiations and provide buyers with greater confidence in the condition of the home.
