Our Inspectors Find What You Can’t See

Roof damage that looks fine from the street. Electrical issues tucked behind finished walls. Moisture quietly building up in a crawl space. Foundation problems concealed beneath flooring. These are not rare; they are common. And without a professional inspection, they become your problem the moment you close.

Our CPI-certified inspectors use advanced tools, including thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters, to find what a standard walkthrough never would. If something is wrong with the property, we find it before it finds you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Home Buyer Inspection?

A home buyer inspection is a thorough evaluation of a property's condition carried out by a certified inspector before purchase. It covers all visible and accessible systems from the roof to the foundation and concludes with a detailed photo report, giving buyers a clear, accurate picture of the home's condition.

Why should I get a Home Buyer Inspection before buying a home?

Any defect discovered after closing becomes your financial responsibility. An inspection gives you the findings while you still have options. Whether that is asking the seller for repairs, negotiating a better price, or walking away from the deal altogether.

When should I schedule a Home Buyer Inspection?

Schedule as soon as your offer is accepted. Most purchase agreements include an inspection contingency window, and acting quickly gives you enough time to review the findings and take action before that period closes.

What does a Home Buyer Inspection include?

Top Notch inspections cover the roof, structure, foundation, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, attic, crawl space, interior, exterior, and built-in appliances. All findings are photographed and documented in a clear, detailed report delivered promptly after the inspection.

Does a Home Buyer Inspection guarantee there will be no future problems?

No inspection can predict every issue that may develop in a home over time. A professional inspection gives you the most accurate assessment of the property's current condition, so you go into your purchase knowing exactly where things stand today.
