    You are encouraged to attend your home inspection. You can follow along and we will verbally explain what we are inspecting and what it means to you. If you cannot attend your inspection, don't worry-we will go over the entire report at your convenience and answer any questions you may have.

    A home inspection is an excellent tool for you, the home buyer/owner, to help you determine not only the condition of the home, but to also help for see any immediate unnecessary additional costs that may go unnoticed without the help of a home inspection. Home inspections are not a prediction of future performance, guarantee or warranty, but can pinpoint existing problem areas.

    We are available to go over the home inspection report with you as often as you like, even after you've moved in. Once our customer, always our customer and we are available to you whenever you need us. If you have questions, want to schedule an inspection or are interested in "additional services", please call us today at (708) 349-4562.  Thank You.
