Home Inspection: $375
I follow a comprehensive Residential Standards of Practice according to NYS Standards of Practice as outlined in Article 12B of the Real Property Law . This means that I’ll inspect the visible and accessible structure, systems and components of the home, inside and out, from the foundation to the roof, using the latest tools and technology. Following my evaluation, I’ll compile my findings in an easy-to-read report, which will include detailed descriptions and high-resolution digital photos of any issues I’ve discovered. I’ll deliver your report within 24 hours, and my job isn’t finished until you understand all aspects of the report.
Wood-Destroying Organism Inspection: $10
Wood-destroying insects can cause serious damage to the wooden structural components of a house. They can hide and go undetected for a long time, but there are many telltale signs for different species that indicate their presence. I’ll inspect your home for evidence of infestation now before it becomes an expensive problem later. If we find any evidence of any previous or current infestation we can recommend a good local exterminator to take care of the problem and provide suggestions on how to alleviate any issues in the future.
Radon Gas Testing: $150
Although radon is a naturally occurring gas in our environment, it's also the second leading cause of lung cancer deaths in the U.S., according to the Surgeon General. One out of 15 homes is estimated to have dangerously elevated radon levels. The Surgeon General and the Environmental Protection Agency recommend testing all houses. Millions of Americans have had their homes tested for radon, and you should, too.
Water Quality Testing: Call for a quote.
Let me test your potable water supply, especially if your property has a private well, cistern or septic system. I will check it for coliform and other harmful bacteria, which can endanger your family’s health. Many banks and FHA or VA loans will require we perform these tests and for the safety and health of you and your family its best to do so. We will always test for water flow on homes with private wells for FREE.
Roof Inspection: $75
Do you need just a roof inspection performed for insurance or other purposes? I will perform a standalone Roof Inspection & Certification and evaluate your roof from the eaves, as well as walk it (when it is safe to do so) to assess its overall condition, including the presence and status of flashing, chimneys, vents, skylights, and other penetrations.
