We work for you. We will give you the straight facts about the condition of the home you are about to purchase. We are also a locally-owned company with one inspector, not part of a nationwide franchise or a multi-inspector firm. Companies with multiple inspectors may be able to get your inspection done faster, but you will likely end up with an inspector who has less experience or training.
We usually do only 2 inspections per day. This allows us the time needed to do a thorough inspection of your home, explain the findings to you and answer any questions that you may have. If you are able to attend the inspection, we will show you the location of all of your main disconnects, explain any issues that were found, and walk you through all of the pictures that were taken during the inspection. The pictures will also be included in the narrative-style report that will be emailed to you the same day as the inspection.
Did you know that in the great state of Colorado, there are no regulations or licensing requirements for home inspectors? That's right; anyone with a flashlight can call themselves a home inspector. This is why it is so important to only hire an ASHI-certified inspector. In order to become ASHI certified, Inspectors have to prove themself by successfully passing the National Home Inspectors Technical and Ethics Exams, They are required to send ASHI a random sampling of the reports to insure that they meet ASHI’s strict standards and had to prove that they have performed more than 250 inspections.
Our reports are computer-generated, easy to understand and well-organized, not to mention detailed and thorough. They are specific to your house and type of construction, not a generic preprinted checklist. We use color-coded narratives for easy navigation and include pictures and illustrations so you don't need a construction background to understand what we’re talking about. However, if you do have any questions after reviewing your report, we’re always a phone call away and we are happy to further explain items or answer any of your inspection-related questions.
We inspect your home as if our family was going to live in it. You'll learn things about the home you wouldn't find out any other way, such as maintenance tips, safety concerns, areas to monitor and estimated life expectancy of vital components. We will take the time to explain the systems and components of the home, show you where your main disconnects are, and answer any questions you may have. We’re also available for questions even after you move in, We want to be your "building consultant for life."
