What's Included in Your Orange County Home Inspection
Every inspection is a visual evaluation performed to ASHI and CREIA Standards of Practice, covering:
- Roof, attic, and structural components
- Foundation, grading, and drainage
- Electrical systems and panels
- Plumbing, water heaters, and fixtures
- HVAC systems
- Appliances and interior/exterior condition
- A detailed digital report with photos
What’s Not Covered
A home inspection is not the same as a municipal code-compliance inspection or a market appraisal. Our inspectors evaluate visible, accessible components, not hidden conditions behind finished walls, since those require specialized tools. For that reason, add-ons like thermal imaging exist to catch what a standard visual inspection can’t, as outlined in our inspection services.
Who We Inspect For
Home Buyers: Before you close, uncover defects so you can renegotiate price or request repairs with documentation in hand.
Home Sellers: Instead of waiting for a buyer’s option period, get a pre-listing inspection that surfaces issues on your own schedule, so there are fewer surprises mid-escrow.
New Construction: Since builder warranties expire, our 10-Month Builder Warranty inspections catch developing issues in time, with a documented list you can bring straight to the builder.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply want peace of mind about the home you already own, single-family homes, condos, townhomes, and luxury properties are all inspected top to bottom.
