Find a home inspector you can trust with Edward Inspections

Purchasing a new home also means buying that home's problems. With a pre-purchase home inspection you can see exactly what you're buying. Problems discovered during the inspection could allow you to renegotiate to offset the costs of repairs — potentially saving you thousands of dollars. We'll even help you become familiar with the property.

Sometimes selling your home can be just as much of a roller coaster as buying one. Getting a pre-listing home inspection can help ensure a quick and smooth transaction. You can enter the selling process with confidence that there won't be any nasty surprises. You'll also avoid delays, which could last for weeks or even months.

Unfortunately, new does not always mean perfect. In fact, new doesn't even guarantee good. Material defects and human error during the construction process can lead to expensive problems later on. A new construction home inspection can help identify these problems early, when they're cheaper to fix. Some issues may even be covered under warranty.

Protect your business with a commercial building inspection. We offer inspections on many commercial properties such as apartment buildings, industrial buildings, office buildings, retail spaces, restaurants, and more.

We'll uncover valuable information regarding the structure and foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, pavement systems, and so on.

A 4-point inspection is often required by insurance companies for homeowners insurance policies, typically for older homes. The 4-point inspection is shorter than a full home inspection and assesses the condition of four vital systems of the home: HVAC (air conditioning and heating), roof, plumbing, and electrical.

An annual home maintenance inspection will help to identify potential problems before they can become major financial or safety issues. With a trained eye, we know where and how to look for problems that might go unnoticed for years. A home maintenance inspection covers common problem areas including the roof and attic, basement and foundation, grading and drainage, electrical systems, water heating systems, and much more.

A sewer scope inspection is a video inspection of the sewer line leading from the house to the sewer system or septic tank. We'll check for obstructions, damage, or other issues such as root penetration, holes or cracks, pipe separation, and more. Some issues may not be affecting performance yet but could cause failure later as the problem worsens over time. Is your sewer line blocked? We also offer a cleanout service!

Blockages in the sewer line can be a headache, and we see this often when performing sewer line inspections. If we discover a blockage — whether caused by grease deposits, non-biodegradeable debris, scale buildup, or even roots penetrating the pipe — we have the equipment and expertise to clean it out. We offer sewer line cleanouts for both residential and commercial properties.

If you're looking to buy a home with a pool or spa, then it's strongly advised to get a pool and spa inspection. While these features are highly sought after, they can also be very expensive to maintain and repair.

A pool & spa inspection includes checking the pool's structure, safety features, equipment, as well as the surrounding deck.

Termite/pest inspections look for more than just termites, including wood boring beetles, carpenter ants, and even bed bugs. Termites alone cause billions of dollars in property damage every year in the United States. Because they can be difficult to detect, a properly trained inspector is necessary to check for the presence of any WDOs in your home.

Our Visual Inspection is a cost-effective property review for real estate investors. We will assess the critical components of the property and look for any issues that may require expensive repairs. While we do include photos of our findings, this inspection does not include a formal inspection report.

A Video Inspection is similar to our Visual Inspection, and is also intended as a cost-effective property review for investors. We will inspect the critical components of the property to check for issues that may require expensive repairs. This inspection does not include a formal inspection report but does include video footage and a description of any items that need to be repaired or replaced.

If you are having work performed on your roof, then we highly recommend having that work inspected by a neutral third party. After the work has been completed, and ideally before you've made the final payment, we will inspect your roof to ensure that the job was done correctly.

Reading and understanding your home inspection report is one thing. But what can you do with that information? In many cases, the goal is to figure out just how much money it will cost to repair or replace any items that were found to be deficient. We can help! For a small fee, we can provide a cost estimate for repairs for deficiencies that are discovered at the time of the inspection. View a sample report.

Preparing a vacant home is critical in reducing the risk of major property damage, and also to minimize waste. Save yourself the hassle and let us take care of winterizing your vacant property so you can rest easy. We will adjust the thermostat, shut off the water at the main valve, turn off your gas line to prevent leaks, unplug everything, and bundle the house up tight.

Looking to buy an investment property with up to four separate units? We'll show you the current state of the property along with any needed repairs. The items covered in a multi-unit inspection are similar to a standard home inspection, with pricing depending on the size of the property. Get in touch with us for more information.

Avoid nasty disputes with the landlord by having us inspect your rental unit, documenting the current state of the unit at the time of move-in. When you move out, an unscrupulous landlord will be unable to hold you financially accountable for problems that existed before you moved in.

A mobile or manufactured home is inspected in much the same way as a standard home inspection. However, these factory-built homes come with their own unique problems. We will perform a thorough inspection to look for additional, potentially costly, issues such as misaligned connections, improperly installed moisture barriers, and sagging of the structure.
