It’s not uncomonnon for something other than the actual inspection to affect the final price of a home inspection.
For some home inspection companies, this means things like:
But for us, there’s only two things outside of actual inspections and services that will impact the final price: SQUARE FOOTAGE AND DRIVE TIME.
01/
Our price is fixed at $445 up to 1499 sq.ft.
This INCLUDES a state-certified termite inspection, which is something most other companies charge extra for.
From there:
1500-1999 sq.ft: + $25
2000-2499 sq.ft: +$40
2500-2899 sq.ft: +$50
2900-3499 sq.ft: +$60
▶ FOR EXAMPLE:
A 2700 sq.ft. house will be $445+ $50 = $495
NOT $445+$25+$40+$50 = $560
For anything above that, call or schedule online.
02 /
This is pretty straightforward.
Our price is fixed within a 50 minute (NOT miles) radius of our address:
Beyond that:
50 min. to 74 min. = +$86
75 min.+ = +$125
▶ FOR EXAMPLE:
If your property is 60 minutes away, you will need to add $86 to the total inspection price.
03/
This is for the times you want us to GO BACK AFTER your home inspection and re-inspect items the seller agreed to repair or areas that were blocked or locked during your original home inspection.
This INCLUDES a report and photos.
04/
We’ve been around long enough to understand that things don’t always go as planned.
Especially when a home is vacant.
So if the home isn’t ready for the inspection when we arrive and we need to reschedule, the first trip is free.
But if we reschedule the inspection and the home is STILL not ready the second time we arrive and we have to leave again, this time there will be a $300 trip charge.
This partially covers the cost of occupying a block of time on our calendar so it becomes unavailable to someone else.

The older your home, the greater the need for home maintenance.
But, not sure where to start?
Our home maintenance inspections highlight maintenance and energy items to help keep your home running at peak efficiency.
Call us now to stop wasting energy (and your hard-earned dollars!) through the cracks, gaps and worn out areas around your home!

Who’s going to help you get the MOST repairs done BEFORE your 12-month builder’s warranty expires?
Especially when it’s easy for a busy life to distract you from all the things that have cracked, bulged, split or broken since you’ve moved into your new home.
Including all the things you can’t see.
Our MaxInspect™ Process is perfect for new home warranty inspections. It checks everything we can see, touch, and test so there are no surprises – or regrets – once your first 12 months are gone.
Call us while you still can.

Did you know your home has important valves and switches that every homeowner NEEDS to know about?
There aren’t many, but knowing where they are and what they do can make the difference between relief and disaster in an emergency.
That’s why every full home inspection includes colorful tags for all your major shutoff valves.
This includes:
This way you can spot them quickly when it matters.
We’ll even show you where they are so there’s no confusion after you move in.
