We adhere to not only the Arizona State strict standards when inspecting your home but also the National Association of Certified Home Inspectors, (NACHI) to provide you with the highest quality home inspection available. We also believe our clients need to be educated not only in what a home inspection covers but also in what it doesn't cover. Please review the What We Inspect tab and our report for those items we do inspect and what is considered outside the scope of our inspection before you schedule your home inspection with us. A standard home inspection is not an exhaustive search. It is a step by step process that covers very specific items.

We inspect and follow the Arizona State Standards. There are limitations as to what an standard home inspection will cover, you need to know these so you can be better prepared. Read our contract and report for a full list. As an example, air conditioning units cannot safely be tested under 65 degrees. Also, a home inspection is a visual inspection only. We do not, as home inspectors, dismantle, take things apart, or move furniture and other items if the house is occupied. There are exclusions. We do not inspect for mold. We are considered a generalist, not a specialist. A home inspection is not a guarantee that no defect exists or a warranty of any kind. Payments are needed on or before the wrap up at the end of the inspection. If we need to if we need to come back to perform a reinspection on any items, that can be arranged for a small fee. Payments must be made and contracts signed before we can release our report.
