FULL HOME INSPECTION
A home is probably the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, so it’s important to understand the condition of your investment. I’ll provide a non-invasive evaluation of the home’s accessible structure, systems and components. While a home inspection can’t reveal every concern that exists, it will significantly reduce your anxiety by arming you with the knowledge you need to make an informed home-buying decision.
​
When you choose us to complete your Full Home Inspection, we include the complimentary use of Infrared Imaging and a Drone to complete the inspection at no extra cost to you.
4-POINT INSPECTION
Many insurance companies require a 4-Point Inspection for homeowner’s insurance and renewals for an existing policy on an older home. The “four points” covered in this limited inspection include the four vital systems of the home: the roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. This inspection identifies their components, determines their age, and assesses their overall condition. Call for specialized estimate.
WIND MITIGATION INSPECTION
Wind mitigation helps limit the amount of wind damage inflicted on a home. Many homeowner's insurance companies offer incentives, such as premium discounts and rebates, for implementing specific protections. And if you’ve already made certain improvements, a Wind Mitigation Inspection can provide the verification you need to receive credits and discounts.
SEWER CAMERA INSPECTION
With a sewer scope inspection, Sighthound Home Inspections, LLC will send a camera through the sewer line of the house to check the overall condition of these concealed lines. Most home inspection companies can only verify that water drains at sinks, toilets, and bathtubs. We take it a step further and can send a camera through the lines to look for defects such as damaged sewer pipes, root infiltration, grease accumulation, cracks, and offset joints that causes waste water to leak into the surrounding soil.
Once a sewer scope inspection is completed, we provide you a link to the video the camera took along with a written report of findings.
INFRARED INSPECTION: Free with every Full Home or Move-In Inspection
I use a state-of-the-art infrared camera to find problems that aren’t always apparent to the naked eye. An IR camera translates the heat signatures of objects into colors on a gradient scale, with higher temperatures appearing as lighter colors, and lower temperatures and wet areas appearing as darker colors. By evaluating these images, I can detect sources of energy loss, locate areas of moisture intrusion, pinpoint dangerous hot spots in the electrical system, and uncover other problems, such as wood-destroying pest and rodent infestations, as well as flue leaks in the chimney, which can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
DRONE INSPECTION: Free for any Full Home inspection or Move-In Ready Inspection
I use a state-of-the-art, camera-mounted unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) or drone to capture images of unsafe or hard-to-access areas, such as tall roofs. I can get an up-close look at any issues and defects that would otherwise not be properly inspected and reported. I can also take aerial photos of the property for real estate listings and informational purposes. Call for specialized estimate.
MONSTER FREE INSPECTION: Free
Moving to a new home can be stressful for children, too. That’s why I offer a Monster-Free Inspection and Certificate. You and your child can accompany me while I inspect under their bed, under the stairs, in the closet, and anywhere else they want so I can assure them that there aren’t any monsters. Simply request this service when I schedule your inspection and I’ll bring a personalized Monster-Free Certificate with me.
Buy-Back Guarantee Is Included
If the home inspector misses a covered item, InterNACHI® - the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors - will buy the home. The Guarantee may be honored for up to 90 days after closing. Additional terms and conditions apply, and the details are available at www.nachi.org/buy. ​I include an InterNACHI® Buy-Back Guarantee with each certified home inspection.
