A home inspection is a set of of recommendations based on current knowledge of building safety and other standards. 
 

A home is usually the most expensive purchase a family will make and repairing a deficient building can be the second largest expenditure. 

Your report will reflect my thirty years of building and construction experience. 

Whether you are buying, selling or maintaining a home or commercial building, a professional inspection can provide you with a comprehensive understanding of each of the systems that comprises a safe, healthy and durable building.  Of course, not all real estate inspections are comprehensive or done by a trained and experienced inspector. 

The report will include recommendations for correction of deficiencies and suggestions for upgrading to the latest building industry safety standards.

The inspections that I perform are at the highest level and the reports are very detailed and, some say, "too thorough".  I believe that is what my clients want and need.  I provide a friendly, informative, thorough and unbiased
inspection without drama.  Each recom-mendation is accompanied by a photo and will explain what the deficiency is, why it is a problem and what I recommend be done about it. Your report will help you to prioritize any needed repairs. Please take a look at my Qualifications and my Sample Home Inspection Report.

My recommendations are not "requirements" and it is up to you to decide whether you will want to act on them.

My Reputation:

  I have had numerous repeat customers and have
  received only praise and never had a complaint
  from my clients.  Several real estate agents have
  told their clients that my inspections are the best
  and most thorough available in Juneau. 

  Some people think that my inspections

  are "Too Thorough" - you be the judge:


  Please review my qualification, sample report,
  customer satisfaction and then ask yourself the
  following questions:

  1. Do I want to know only a portion of
      the condition of my home?

  2. Why would some people not want me
      to have a complete understanding of

      the condition of my home?
