You need an independent inspector who will take the time to not only to perform a thorough and detailed inspection, but walk through the entire home with you, explaining defects and areas of concern mentioned in the report, as well as maintenance and safety items.

After all, this is YOUR home and you want to know as much as you can about it! Finally, when you are nearing the end of the inspection, will the inspector be scrambling to get you a report onsite or will he take the time to review his notes and prepare one of the most easily understood and professional reports in the industry within 24 hours?

A Home Inspection
This is the main type of inspection we do most of the time- the same inspection we do on most houses new or used (except the specialty inspections). This inspection follows the requirements of the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) guidelines published as the "Standards of Practice" for licensed inspectors. The inspection should be completed before closing with enough time remaining to accomplish any necessary repairs.
The purpose of this inspection is to verify that all Structural, Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing systems are installed and operating as intended including, but not limited to:
• Full home inspection--- meeting or exceeding all requirements of the
Standards of Practice as delineated by the Texas Real Estate Commission
(TREC)
• Inspect the Structure including: Foundation, Grading and Drainage, Roof
Covering, Roof Structure and Attic, Walls (interior and exterior), Ceilings and
Floors, Doors, Windows, Fireplace/Chimney, Porches, Decks, Driveways,
Carports
• Inspect Electrical Systems including: Service Entrance & Panels, Branch
Circuits, Outlets, Switches, Fixtures, Disconnects, GFCI's
• Inspect Heating, Venting and Air Conditioning Systems, Ducts and other items
which may affect your energy use efficiency-saving you money.
• Inspect Water Supply System, Fixtures, Drains, Wastes Vents,
and Water Heating Equipment.
• Inspect built in Appliances, and other Optional Systems
• Inspect for Safety Devices and Maintenance practices
This inspection is the type of inspections that is done when we are asked to do an "inspection". We can only tell you what we can see, touch, or test. We cannot see through concrete or walls. When you buy a completed house, whether "New" or "Used", this is the only type inspection that can be accomplished without destruction of the media (drywall, concrete, etc.) that obstructs our vision.
Note: Gold Medal Inspections inspects to a higher standard than the minimums required by the state.
If you're buying a new home, see the "New Construction Phase" inspection area for more information.
