Home Inspection Overview

A professional home inspection gives you an independent, unbiased perspective on any building and the problems that may be present within in. The inspections we provide also offer solutions so that you will have all the facts you need to make a sound, informed decision about your purchase.

Depending on the size and condition of the home, a thorough home inspection will take no more than four hours, and typically takes between two and three. Ideally, you will accompany the inspector during the consultation so that you have visual reinforcement to back up the written report.

We take our inspection reports seriously. Every inspection is a complete and thorough analysis of all the major systems and components in the home. The report includes a clear description of any problem areas so you can easily identify them. Our inspectors also provide a free telephone consultation after your inspection. We are happy to offer inspection services for any home in the Tucson, Arizona area, including bank-owned property inspections. Below you will find a full list of what our inspections entail.
