Residential Inspections
If you're planning on buying or selling a home, then hiring a home inspector could save you thousands of dollars. It will also help you understand the property you want to buy and the possible defects. For sellers, it can provide insight into a home to know what to expect and can make repairs before listing a property.
Light Commercial Inspections
A commercial building inspection helps you identify potential problems before they become expensive repairs or even worse, an unsafe structure. It also gives you peace of mind knowing that your property is safe for tenants and visitors. This type of inspection is required by law in most states.
Drywall inspections
It becomes increasingly difficult to inspect these important parts of your home when the drywall is installed, which means it's imperative to get a preemptive inspection. Some issues that could arise during a pre-dry wall inspection include improper or missing nails in joists, broken roof trusses and roof rafters, improperly installed plumbing, electrical components, or rough-in elements, and problems with windows or exterior doors.
Pool & Spa inspections
A pool inspection is one of the most important steps in owning a swimming pool. We are licensed and insured to inspect residential swimming pools and spas.
Irrigation and Sprinkler System Inspections
An irrigation inspection involves a thorough evaluation of a property's irrigation system to identify any inefficiencies, leaks, or other issues that may be impacting water usage and landscape health, with the goal of improving efficiency and reducing waste.
Thermal Imaging
The purpose of an infrared scan is to find issues that may not be visible to the naked eye and catch them before they become a major problem. With the use of our infrared camera, we can help identify moisture, insulation, electrical, HVAC issues, and more.
Pre-Listing Inspections
A pre-listing inspection can not only help expedite the selling process but potentially even increase the property's sale price. Additionally, they can help reduce the chances of a sale falling through due to unexpected issues with the property being discovered during the negotiation or buyer's inspection.
Apartment / Condo Inspections
Getting a condo inspection isn’t something that people always think about, but it is just as important as getting a home inspection on a residential home. Condos can have many of the same issues that homes can have, so it is important to make sure that the area is a safe place to live!
Seasonal Inspections
A seasonal inspection is a proactive way to keep your home safe, efficient, and well-maintained throughout the year. As the seasons change, different elements of your home—such as roofing, HVAC systems, plumbing, and insulation—face unique challenges. A professional home inspection can help identify potential issues before they become costly repairs.
Final Walkthrough Inspections
A final walkthrough inspection is a crucial step in the home-buying process, giving buyers a last opportunity to ensure the property is in the agreed-upon condition before closing. This inspection typically takes place 24–48 hours before signing the final paperwork and helps verify that any repairs have been completed, appliances and systems are functioning, and no unexpected damage has occurred.
The Best Modern Report in the Industry
While V&S Home Inspection Inc encourages our clients to walk through the home with us, we understand that you may be too busy, and may not have time to do so.
Regardless of whether or not you attend the inspection, we will compile a comprehensive Spectora report, which includes all of the information you need to determine the condition of the home.
We will deliver our report within 24 hours of the conclusion of your home inspection, so that you can quickly access a full overview of our findings – and discuss them with us and your agent.

How long does a home inspection take?
Home inspections generally take 2 to 4 hours to complete. The duration of a home inspection depends on many factors such as the size of the home, the condition of the home, and the ability to access certain areas of the home (roof, crawl space, attic, etc.).
Should I attend the inspection?
Although it is not necessary, we do recommend that you attend the inspection so you can ask questions and learn more about the home. You will learn a lot from the inspection report, but we always encourage you to attend!
What if the inspection report reveals problems?
It is important to note that no house is perfect. At the end of the home inspection process, we will provide a detailed report that describes the physical condition of the property, with images and videos highlighting what may need repair or replacement. The information provided is to allow a potential buyer to make an informed decision about moving forward with the transaction. It is not pass or fail.
