  • Foundation

    The integrity of your home’s foundation is critical. We use a high-precision altimeter to check for elevation anomalies around the slab, together with a thorough visual inspection.

  • Roof

    We walk most roofs and put hands on your investment. We inspect for water damage, improper installation, common deficiencies, and defects that can void a warranty.

  • Electrical

    We inspect switches, receptacles, electrical panels, light fixtures, and the grounding system so you know what is hiding behind the panel.

  • Mechanical

    A working AC is necessary in Houston. We inspect ductwork, plenums, unit performance, the condensing unit, evaporator, and the heat exchanger on your furnace.

  • Plumbing

    We test fixtures and drains in every plumbing room to detect leaks and document deficiencies across traps, vents, pipes, valves, and fixtures.

  • Phase inspections

    We inspect new construction in three phases: pre-pour foundation, rough-in, and final — so repairs are itemized before closing or during the 11th-month warranty.

Included with every inspection

  • Detailed digital report within 24 hours
