Inspection Services
From thorough home inspections to specialized assessments, we follow the highest standards of practice. Your satisfaction is our priority.
Full Home Inspection
A home is probably the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, so it’s important to understand the condition of your investment. We’ll provide a non-invasive evaluation of the home’s accessible structure, systems, and components. While a home inspection can’t reveal every concern that exists, it will significantly reduce your anxiety by arming you with the knowledge you need to make and informed home-buying decision.

Condo OR Townhome Inspection
Typically, the interior of a condominium or townhome is completely the owner’s responsibility, not the association. An inspection can help protect you from unwanted liabilities. Although the structure, exterior, and certain systems may not be your responsibility – we still evaluate everything we have access to in the same way we would for any other inspection. This helps identify potential future association fees for necessary repairs, keeping you informed and prepared.

Radon measurement is an important inspection service to schedule for any prospective home-buyer. Many radon hotspots are yet to be discovered, and although radon gas naturally occurs underground, that doesn’t make it any less dangerous. Radon is a known carcinogen, and our team is determined to help protect our clients by using cutting-edge equipment to test homes for unsafe levels of radon gas. This test lasts 48 hours.

Well Inspection and Flow Testing

Electrical Inspection (RI Only)
Due to regulations put in place as of 2025 in Rhode Island, home inspectors are no longer permitted to remove the cover of electrical panels. To ensure your home’s electrical panel is thoroughly assessed, we’re partnered with licensed electricians who are available to provide professional electrical cover removals and panel evaluations during your home inspection. This services allows us to deliver a comprehensive assessment of your home’s electrical system, giving you peace of mind and ensuring that important or potentially significant electrical issues, which we are now unable to inspect or evaluate, are not overlooked.

Mold Testing
Mold inside a home is problematic for a number of reasons, the most pressing of which concerns the health of residents and potential damage to building materials. Mold follows moisture, and if there is water in the walls or the ceilings, then that can be a major issue—not to mention, mold spores can cause persistent allergies. We’re able to comprehensively inspect and test a home for the presence of mold, with instant, on-site results.

Termite/WDO Inspection
Wood-destroying organisms can inflict serious damage to the structure of a home, and it’s important to have the property inspected for termite damage before you make a buying decision.

This is not an extra service and is included in any inspection, free of charge.

For this inspection service, water samples are collected from the well sourcing the home and the tap. These samples are promptly sent off to a local specialist that will analyze the water for evidence of contamination.
