New construction inspection
Our new construction inspections adhere to the same high standards as our pre-purchase inspections. In addition to this, we conduct a cosmetic quality assurance review. We mark cosmetic defects throughout the home, including walls, ceilings/floors, doors, windows, countertops, and cabinets with painter's red tape. This service is provided as a courtesy on all new constructions at no additional cost.

Repair Verification Inspections:
After your inspection, you may come to an agreement on repairs to be made to the home/building. When the sellers tells you these repairs have been completed you may want someone to verify the work was done correctly. We offer a Repair Verification inspection of the deficiencies noted in our report that have been agreed by the sellers to be repaired. Send us the contract addendum and you can hire us to make sure it was done right. (See inspection agreement for full details)
