Buying a home is one of, if not the greatest financial decision you will make. Wouldn’t it be nice to have some reassurance in making that decision? Our home inspector's job is to provide you that reassurance!
our standard
APEX Property Inspections follows the ASHI, (American Society of Home Inspectors), Standards of Practice to determine the safety, functionality, and overall condition of the property.
APEX Property Inspections will conduct a thorough assessment of the general condition of the home at the time of the inspection. Our inspector will perform a limited visual examination of the structure, it’s components and the mechanical functions of the home using normal operating controls. Our basic inspections include, but are not limited to:
roofs*
exterior and interior surfaces
attics and insulation
windows and doors
garages and carports
electrical
heating and air conditioning
plumbing and fixtures
*Roof access will be made when available based on the type of roof material, and roof pitch. To minimize damage done to roof surfaces as a result of foot traffic, we often use drones to inspect the roof.
Our process
Prior to the Inspection
Upon contacting APEX Property Inspections, we will gather some information regarding your inspection needs, and schedule an appointment for the inspection. Once we schedule your appointment, we will send you a pre-inspection agreement to review, sign and return to us by email. We will not be able to start the inspection until we have received a signed agreement.
Day of Inspection
We invite all of our clients to be present for the inspection to have any questions answered. Our inspector will spend a couple minutes before the inspection begins to address any questions our clients may have. Once our inspection begins, we ask all of our clients to save any additional questions for the end of the inspection to allow our inspector to focus on the inspection in order to be thorough as possible to provide our clients with the most detailed assessment. Once our inspector finishes the physical inspection, he will spend a couple of minutes to address any additional questions our clients have. After the inspection has concluded, our clients will receive a complete, thorough report, typically within twenty four hours, if not the same day.
