Know Before You Buy

Buyer’s Home Inspection

What It Is

A complete, top-to-bottom visual inspection of the home you’re buying — every major system and component, documented in a detailed digital report with photos.

Why You Need It

The inspection is your chance to learn the home’s true condition before you close. With 12+ years as a custom home builder, Darryl knows how homes should be built and where problems hide, so you can negotiate repairs, plan ahead, or walk away with confidence.

What We Inspect

  • Roof, attic, insulation & ventilation
  • Structure & foundation
  • Plumbing & electrical systems
  • Heating & cooling systems
  • Walls, ceilings, windows & doors
  • Appliances, garage, decks & porches
  • Detailed digital report with photos

For Home Sellers

Pre-Listing Inspection

What It Is

An inspection completed before your home goes on the market, so you know what a buyer’s inspector is going to find — before they find it.

Why You Need It

Surprises during the buyer’s inspection can derail a sale or cost you at the negotiating table. A pre-listing inspection lets you fix issues on your terms, price your home accurately, and give buyers confidence from day one.

What You Get

  • Full inspection of the home’s major systems
  • Time to make repairs before listing
  • Fewer surprises during negotiations
  • A report you can share with buyers
  • Smoother, faster closings
🏗️
Brand-New Homes

New Construction Inspection

What It Is

An independent inspection of a newly built home before you close, looking for workmanship issues, missed details, and items that need the builder’s attention.

Why You Need It

New doesn’t mean perfect. Even good builders miss things, and once you close, getting them fixed gets harder. Darryl’s background as a custom home builder makes him especially sharp at catching new-construction issues while the builder is still responsible.

What We Look For

  • Framing, structure & foundation
  • Roofing, flashing & drainage
  • Plumbing, electrical & HVAC installation
  • Insulation & ventilation
  • Interior finishes, windows & doors
  • A clear punch list for your builder
🔧
For Current Homeowners

Annual Home Maintenance Inspection

What It Is

A yearly check-up of the home you already own — a thorough look at its systems and components to spot wear, damage, and developing problems.

Why You Need It

Small issues like a minor roof leak, a failing seal, or a drainage problem become expensive when they’re missed. An annual inspection helps you budget for repairs, protect your investment, and keep your home in top shape.

What You Get

  • Full inspection of major systems
  • Early warning on developing problems
  • Help prioritizing repairs & maintenance
  • Detailed report with photos
  • Peace of mind year after year
💰
For Investors

Investment & Rental Property Inspection

What It Is

Inspections for rental homes, flips, and investment properties, giving you a clear picture of condition, repair needs, and potential costs.

Why You Need It

Every dollar of unexpected repair cuts into your return. Knowing a property’s true condition before you buy — or between tenants — helps you make smart offers, plan renovations, and keep your properties safe and rentable.

What You Get

  • Full inspection of the property
  • Repair needs & safety concerns identified
  • Information to support your offer
  • Photo documentation of condition
  • Inspections for single homes & small portfolios
✅
Verify the Work

Re-Inspection & Repair Verification

What It Is

A follow-up inspection to confirm that repairs negotiated after your original inspection were actually completed — and completed correctly — before you close.

Why You Need It

A receipt doesn’t always mean the job was done right. A re-inspection gives you an independent check on the work so you can close knowing the issues you negotiated for were truly resolved.

What We Verify

  • Repairs listed in your repair agreement
  • Quality of completed work
  • Items that still need attention
  • Updated photos for your records
  • Confidence before closing
🏢
Attached Homes

Condo & Townhome Inspection

What It Is

Inspections tailored to condominiums and townhomes, focusing on the unit and the components you’ll be responsible for as an owner.

Why You Need It

Attached homes come with shared walls, shared systems, and HOA responsibilities. A focused inspection helps you understand the condition of your unit and what’s yours to maintain versus what the association covers.

What We Inspect

  • Interior systems & components of the unit
  • Plumbing, electrical & HVAC
  • Water heater, appliances & fixtures
  • Windows, doors, balconies & patios
  • Accessible exterior & shared areas as applicable
🏘️
Duplexes & Small Buildings

Multi-Family Inspection

What It Is

Inspections for duplexes, triplexes, and small multi-unit buildings, covering each unit as well as shared systems and the building as a whole.

Why You Need It

Multi-family properties have more systems, more units, and more potential problems. A thorough inspection protects your investment and helps you plan for repairs across every unit.

What We Inspect

  • Each individual unit
  • Roof, structure & foundation
  • Shared & separate mechanical systems
  • Plumbing & electrical throughout
  • Common areas & exterior
🚐
Manufactured & Mobile Homes

Manufactured & Mobile Home Inspection

What It Is

Inspections for manufactured and mobile homes, from the roof and exterior to the foundation, plumbing, electrical, and heating and cooling systems.

Why You Need It

Manufactured homes have their own construction methods and common problem areas. An inspector who knows what to look for helps you buy with confidence and avoid costly surprises.

What We Inspect

  • Roof & exterior
  • Foundation, piers & skirting
  • Plumbing & electrical systems
  • Heating & cooling
  • Interior components & appliances
🏰
Larger & High-End Homes

Luxury & Estate Home Inspection

What It Is

Detailed inspections for larger, high-end homes with complex systems, multiple HVAC units, extensive square footage, and premium finishes.

Why You Need It

The bigger and more complex the home, the more there is to evaluate — and the more an oversight can cost. Darryl takes the time a larger home deserves, inspecting every system with the same care and detail.

What We Inspect

  • Multiple HVAC systems & water heaters
  • Complex roofing & drainage
  • Structure & foundation
  • Extensive plumbing & electrical
  • Every room, every level
🏪
For Businesses & Investors

Commercial Property Inspection

What It Is

Inspections for small commercial buildings and mixed-use properties, covering the building’s structure, systems, and overall condition.

Why You Need It

A commercial property is a major investment. Understanding its condition before you buy or lease helps you budget for repairs, negotiate with confidence, and avoid surprises that affect your business.

What We Inspect

  • Roof, structure & foundation
  • Electrical & plumbing systems
  • Heating & cooling
  • Interior & exterior components
  • Clear report of condition & concerns
☢️
Kentucky Homes

Radon Testing

What It Is

A test for radon, an invisible, odorless radioactive gas that can build up inside homes. Radon testing can be added to any home inspection.

Why You Need It

Many parts of Kentucky see elevated radon levels, and you can’t see or smell it — testing is the only way to know. The EPA recommends taking action when levels reach 4.0 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) or higher.

What You Get

  • Radon test added to your inspection
  • Results measured in pCi/L
  • Comparison to the EPA 4.0 pCi/L action level
  • Clear explanation of your results
  • Peace of mind for your family
