CHOOSING AN INSPECTOR

After what seems like forever, you find the perfect house and are ready to make it your home. A major investment that you believe will keep your family healthy, happy and secure.
Wanting to protect your investment in what is possibly the most expensive purchase you will ever make, a home inspection is a no brainer. Remember this, the price of a quality home inspection is very small relative to the home's cost. A cheap inspection may leave undiscovered flaws and defects that translate into unexpected headaches and expenses. Now is the time to shop quality and value, not just price!
