Our expert inspectors provide comprehensive reports with observations, recommendations, and actionable steps for repairs. This report will help you understand your property’s condition and make informed decisions, avoiding potential problems and ensuring your investment is protected.

A sewer scope inspection uses a small camera to assess your sewer line quickly. By analyzing the pipes from the inside, an inspector can identify any issues early to prevent costly repairs. It’s highly recommended for any property owner.

Water testing ensures safe and clean water through contaminant detection. Homes, businesses, and municipalities benefit from the service, providing peace of mind and identifying health hazards. A certified inspector collects samples, laboratory tests them, then delivers a detailed report. It is critical to maintain a trustworthy water supply.

Radon is an odorless, colorless, and naturally occurring radioactive gas that can cause serious health issues over time.  It is the #1 cause of lung cancer among non-smokers, and is only detectable through testing.  We use state-of-the-art equipment to check radon levels in the home, which can be mitigated once identified.

Bacteriological inspection tests for harmful bacteria in food, water, and other materials. This service uses state-of-the-art equipment and is conducted by highly trained professionals. Results help determine the presence, type, and level of harmful bacteria to create control measures and protect public health. It ensures safety and quality of products used worldwide.

Buying a newly constructed home is exciting—it’s modern, untouched, and built just for you.  But even the best builders can make mistakes, and new homes aren’t immune to defects. Our Certified Master Inspectors can identify these and other issues before the builder hands over the keys to your new home.

Mold spores can trigger allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and skin irritations.  In some cases, prolonged exposure to mold can lead to chronic health problems, making it essential to identify mold issues early. By including mold testing in your inspection process, you ensure that your family is moving into a safe, healthy environment.

Septic inspections help identify potential issues before they become costly problems. By prioritizing a septic inspection during the home buying process, you can save money, avoid unexpected surprises, and enjoy your new home with confidence. If your home is equipped with a septic system, don’t overlook this critical step.

Our WDO inspection includes a detailed examination of the home looking for signs of wood destroying organisms to include termites, carpenter ants, carpenter beetles, and wood-boring beetles. These insects can cause significant damage to wooden structures by feeding on, tunneling through, or nesting within wood.

VERBAL CONSULTATION

A verbal consultation can be a valuable tool for a home buyer looking for a fast close, or for a multitude of other reasons.  During a verbal consultation we will conduct an on-site consultation covering the major components of the home.  This process will include a walk-through of the home with a verbal overview, tips for maintenance and repair, and a final debrief. 

Drone Aerial Inspections

Drones offer safe, fast, cost-effective inspections for buildings, infrastructure, and large assets.  They can capture inaccessible angles without the use of scaffolding or ladders.  Drones are also excellent for roof inspections when roofing material is metal, tile, slate, or shake.  They are also invaluable when the pitch is too steep or dangerous to walk or when inspecting chimney tops. We use state-of-the-art equipment on every job!

Commercial Inspection

We are here to help with the due diligence process in purchasing a commercial and multiplex property.  We use state-of-the-art equipment and innovative technology to provide a comprehensive report covering the current condition of the property, including digital photos and recommendations to help plan for ongoing and upcoming maintenance and safety.   

Multi Family Inspection

Similar to a full home inspection, the home inspector reviews all visual aspects of all major systems and structural components of the home, as well as items specific to these types of home.  Our experience in these types of homes will give you the confidence needed to make an informed decision.  

irrigation inspection

An irrigation inspection is a visual and operational inspection of your irrigation system. It is important to have your irrigation system inspected regularly to ensure that it is operating efficiently and effectively. A well-maintained irrigation system can save you money on your water bill and help to keep your lawn and landscaping healthy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Buying or selling a home can be a stressful experience, but we’re here to ensure you know what to expect during your home inspection.

A home inspection includes checking for any structural issues such as foundation cracks, roof leaks, plumbing issues, electrical wiring, heating/cooling systems, insulation, windows, doors, chimneys, etc. Depending on how big the property is, a home inspection typically takes 2-4 hours.

Ensure all inspection points are free from clutter, including any closets that might lead to a crawlspace or attic, and clearing some space around your home’s perimeter. Keep in mind it’s also important for us to check the functionality of all built-in appliances, electric, and gas. If you don’t plan to attend the inspection, make sure your inspector has access to the home, and all pets are properly contained or moved.

A home doesn’t pass or fail an inspection. Instead, a home inspection is a thorough audit of your home’s components. In most cases, there will be concerns marked on your home inspection report, but these are strictly informative.

While you can legally skip a home inspection in many cases, doing so could mean you may end up buying a home that has major issues that need to be fixed.

A home inspection can affect appraisals for two reasons: 1) The inspector may find something wrong with the property that would lower the value of the home, 2) The inspector may find things that need repair which could increase the value of the home. If the inspection finds issues that require repairs, then the seller has to decide whether they want to fix them themselves, or hire someone else to do it. If the buyer wants to purchase the home, he/she must be willing to pay for those repairs.

At Brick and Mortar Home Inspections, Inc., we are dedicated to empowering you with the knowledge and confidence you need to make one of life’s biggest decisions.
