Our Services

We perform whole house inspections as our primary service. We are certified by the Washington State Department of Agriculture to perform a Structural Pest/Wood Destroying Organism Inspection as a separate inspection if you have a need for that. We also offer unbiased inspections on any specific part of your home. Such as heating/cooling systems, electrical checks, etc. These are quoted on a case by case basis. Simply contact us with your needs and we'll be happy to discuss them with you. Seller's Pre-Listing Inspections

Many sellers overlook pre-listing inspections. We provide this inspections to help sellers prepare their home for the real estate market. Warranty Inspections

Most new homes have a one-year, new home warranty from the builder. Many also have an additional warranty purchased with the home. Having a whole house inspection, 120 days prior to your warranty expiration, will make the warranty worthwhile. We'll uncover items that need attention so you can have your builder correct it under warranty. Call us for details. Fixer-Upper Inspections

Wondering where to start with your "fixer-upper" home? Own a rental property that needs some repairs? Then a home inspection is for you. It will help you understand the current condition of the home so that you can prioritize your repairs. We provide all of the findings and notes in the inspection report.

Plumbing traps or drain traps are designed to prevent sewer gases from entering your home or building by creating a water barrier between the fixture and the sewer system. They work by gravity. Water is collected in the trap which prevents sewer gases from escaping into the home or building. The diagram is of a properly installed trap. The other photos, from some of our inspections are of some drains that have been installed by homeowners. Some just don't understand how the trap is designed to work.

While doing an inspection on a very nice home. I noticed that the crawlspace was incredibly humid. Water was dripping from the floor joists, plumbing drain lines and the underfloor insulation was soaked. What I found that was causing this was, hot water spraying from a pin hole in a hot water supply pipe at the far side of the crawlspace. It is a good idea to look into your crawlspace once in awhile, just to make sure nothing is out of the normal.

Doing this for over 20 years now. I have seen some obsoletely beautiful homes and some, well not so nice. Only once have I told a buyer, it may be best to just bulldoze the home down and build a new one.
