The standard house inspection report will document the condition of the foundations, structure, exterior, roof, plumbing, electrical, interior, insulation/ventilation, security, and pests.

Our building inspectors will be able to offer you the best advice based on years of experience in the industry which will help you in deciding how best to spend your money.
