Aerial inspections
If the roof is too high or too steep, I have a drone. My Drone can also provide you with a alternate perspective on the property your looking at as well as the surrounding properties.

Inspections start at $350.00 for homes up to 2500 sq ft. built on a concrete slab foundation. 3-4 four hours on site would be needed for this size inspection.
Crawlspaces add to the fee, depending on size and access.
Pools are additional, with price depending on complexity.
I offer Home Inspection everyday,
including Saturdays and Sundays.
When choosing a home inspector, it should not be about the price, instead it should be about the Home Inspector.
Home Inspector level of experience, education and qualifications make a difference to help you make one of the most important decisions of your life.
