Our inspector holds the Certified Master Inspector (CMI) designation, the highest and most recognized credential in the industry, and an active membership with InterNACHI that requires real field hours and education to maintain current knowledge. We also hold IRC Code Inspector Certification and Accessibility Code Inspector Certification credentials that indicate a more comprehensive understanding of how buildings are constructed and what current safety codes truly require. Combined with years of hands-on construction experience, our inspector does more than identify defects and move on. We explain how issues occur, what causes them, and what they mean for your investment. This is what honest, experienced inspection work looks like.

Our Services
Home Inspection
We inspect all of the accessible areas of your house structure, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, etc., and provide you with a report that is as simple and clear as possible and contains photographs of the accessible areas which enable you to make informed decisions.
Chimney Inspection
Our inspections cover the entire chimney, starting at the firebox and ending at the crown. We assess the condition of the flue and the chimney venting, masonry as well as the fire risks. Deterioration and blockages seldom provide warning signs and our inspections catch those issues before they become costly or dangerous problems.
Radon Testing
Radon is odorless and colorless, and cannot be detected without specialized testing equipment. Some dangers may worsen with higher levels of concentration and become serious and create long-term health issues. The dangers . All of our radon testing is done by certified professionals and meets EPA testing standards.
Sewer Scope / Sewer Inspection
A high-resolution camera inspects your sewer line in real time and documents root intrusions, damaged pipes, bellies, and blockages. Problems discovered before lines are closed are far less costly than those discovered after. We suggest sewer scopes with almost all home inspections.
Infrared Inspection
Thermal imaging can identify problems that would otherwise be overlooked, including leaks, heat loss through walls and ceilings, insulation gaps, and hotspots in electrical systems. Older properties, including mountain homes, require more attention and accuracy when inspected. This added accuracy and attention is provided by our FLIR camera.
Pre-Drywall / New Construction Inspection
After drywall installation, everything behind it is permanently concealed. We look at the frame, electrical rough-in, plumbing, and HVAC systems while everything is still exposed and adjustments are easier to make. This is the most time-sensitive inspection in new construction do not miss it.

Yes, we have all the necessary certifications and licenses for home inspections in both Tennessee and Alabama. Our inspector is a Certified Master Inspector (CMI), a current member of InterNACHI, and holds an IRS Code Compliance Investigator Certification.
A standard home inspection reviews the structure, roof, foundation, electrical system, plumbing, HVAC, and the interior. We document any issues with photos and give you a clear, detailed report.
Yes, we do. Especially in older homes or on wooded lots. Pipe deterioration and root intrusion will not show any visible signs until real damage has already occurred. A sewer scope will tell you exactly what is going on inside before you buy it.
After the rough-in for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC has been completed but before insulation or drywall is installed. That window closes very quickly, and this is your only real opportunity to see what is happening inside those walls while any corrections are still easy to make!
Between 2.5 and 4 hours typically, depending on the size, age, and condition of the property. We take as long as it really needs – hurrying through an inspection helps no one in the end.
Yes, we do, and we would truly recommend it. Moisture issues develop in seasonal properties; structural concerns as well as septic problems that primary residences usually do not have. We are very familiar with properties in Mentone so we know exactly what to look out for.
We set up certified monitoring equipment in the lowest habitable level of the home and leave it for the required period. Results go to an accredited lab. It’s completely non-invasive and simple on your end.
Please do we encourage it every time. Walking through the property with your inspector as findings come up gives you a real understanding that no written report, however detailed, can fully replace it on its own.
Same day, every time. Your report arrives fully detailed, photo documented, and written in plain language so you have everything you need to make a confident decision without waiting around for days.
