Services
General Home Inspection
Our comprehensive home inspections evaluate all major systems including roofing, plumbing, electrical, and structural components. We identify safety hazards, maintenance needs, and potential repair costs while providing detailed visual documentation. Clients receive easy-to-understand reports with photos and diagrams to support informed real estate decisions.
Septic Inspections
We conduct thorough septic system inspections using fiberoptic cameras to assess tank condition and drain field functionality. Our evaluations identify leaks, blockages, and structural issues while providing maintenance recommendations. These inspections help prevent costly failures and ensure compliance with local health department requirements during property transactions.
Radon Testing
Our EPA-recommended radon testing measures this invisible, odorless radioactive gas that can accumulate in homes. Using specialized equipment, we analyze indoor air quality and provide detailed results with mitigation recommendations when elevated levels are detected, helping protect occupants' health.
Water Testing
We perform comprehensive water quality tests for bacteria, heavy metals, and chemical contaminants. Our services meet NY Department of Health standards for annual testing and pre-purchase evaluations, providing critical information about drinking water safety and treatment needs.
Wood-Destroying Insect Inspections
Our inspections identify termite activity, carpenter ant infestations, and other wood-destroying pests. We examine structural components for damage signs and provide treatment recommendations, helping prevent costly repairs and ensuring property integrity during real estate transactions.

Report
Very thorough inspection. Frank did our home inspection and did an amazing job. Allowed me to walk around with him and ask questions as the inspection went on. Very knowledgeable and pointed out EVERYTHING no matter how small which I appreciate. Highly recommended.
