You've put a lot of time and effort into
finding your new home.

If you are like most people, your home is the biggest investment you will ever make, and one that will impact your family for years. You need to make an informed decision before you take out that mortgage.  

So before you invest your hard earned money, your next step should be a thorough, professional home inspection by 1st Check Inspection Services.  If there are hidden flaws or structural damage, you need to know about them now, not later.  We will provide to you and your realtor the information you need to determine the true property value of your new home.

1st Check Inspections will provide a complete visual inspection of  your new home-- roof to basement, inside and out.  We will insure that you will have a complete, unbiased report of the entire structure; our home inspection checklist  can include up to 1600 check points.  You get this in a written report immediately after the inspection-- no waiting.  We will review all the details with you, and explain any problems we find. We also like to point out all good features, too!

Renters:  Before you sign that lease, you should have the property inspected to insure that there are no hidden problems-- such as mold or dangerous Radon gas-- that could affect you and your family.

1st Check Inspection Services can provide the same peace of mind to buyers and sellers of Mobile Homes and Manufactured Houses.

Heating:  In addition to a complete visual inspection of the heating systems, we will check for Carbon Monoxide, and advise you on how to prevent its occurrence in the future.

Plumbing: We check for leaks and serviceability of the systems.

Electrical:  We'll test outlets for power- and proper wiring.  We will also advise you on the service capacity, as well as visually inspect the wiring.

Structure:  Thorough inspection of foundations, walls, floor joists and attic.

Roof:  We will walk the roof (if accessible) to inspect it for condition, leaks, proper ventilation, and inspect the chimneys. 

Radon-  We will provide certified testing for Radon. (optional)

Mold-  We will visually inspect the structure for harmful mold.  We compete a Mold Survey Report intended to provide the client with a better understanding of the property conditions as observed at the tine of the survey.  Microbial Sampling performed if required. (optional)

Termites- We provide certified inspections for Termites and other damage-causing insects. (optional)
