Our Services Home inspections can help you buy or sell your home with confidence.
As a trained professional I have seen it all, and will provide invaluable help in turning you into a knowledgeable consumer.
Home owners can identify problems in the making and take preventive measures to avoid costly repairs. Home sellers can understand
conditions the buyer’s inspector may point out and put the property in better selling condition by making repairs.
My inspection services include:
Buyers Inspection
In both new and older homes, the best way to ensure that you are well informed about the strengths and weaknesses of a property is to have me give you a professional home inspection. I am trained to identify problem areas both small and large that may have been overlooked by the previous owners, and to identify which require immediate attention. This is the most common inspection performed typically for the real estate transaction. See our Inspection Overview for more details. Sellers Inspection Whether you are selling your home on your own or using a realtor, it’s always a prudent idea to have a professional home inspection. Knowledge is power. All homes have strengths and weaknesses, and each home is unique. I'll help you evaluate how serious the problems are and which must be immediately addressed and which can wait. The more you know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation. This inspection is also referred to as a “prelisting inspection”. See my Inspection Overview for more details. Construction Inspection In a new home, the quality of construction is often not what it used to be some years ago, therefore many buyers have independent reviews of their properties during various stages of the construction process, including slab, frame, and final inspection. This relatively inexpensive phased inspection protects your purchase, prevents unpleasant surprises, and ensures the quality home that you’ve dreamed about by looking at the building before the walls are closed in. Warranty Inspection Most builders provide a one-year warranty for new construction. Generally during this period of time the buyer develops a "punch list" of corrections for the contractor to repair under the warranty coverage. The builder will want your “punch list” submitted by the beginning of the 11th month. You will need to conduct this inspection the month before to allow you time to complete the forms. Some defects will not be obvious to the untrained eye. It is prudent to obtain our home inspectors list of items that will most likely be repaired by your builder at no cost to you. You will be reassured knowing that potential problems were addressed before they grew into something that could cost you a great deal down the road. Radon Gas Inspection My job as your professional home inspector is to alert you, to the greatest extent possible, to unknown problems and potential environmental hazards in your current or potential home. Colorado’s mountains with all of their beauty can also cause high levels of radon. Mountain High Inspections can provide you with a Radon Gas test that only requires a minimum of 48 hours to complete that works well with your real estate inspection. See our Environmental Hazards page for more information. |
