About Your Inspection
Whether you are buying, selling, or maintaining your home, I provide professional and quality service from the moment you call. I am a certified home inspector who will walk you through the home, educate you, and answer your questions on anything you may not be familiar with. I strictly abide by and follow the Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice set forth by the state of Tennessee. Once finished, an indepth review will be conducted to highlight all areas of concern noted in the report.
Here is a quick overview of the services included in your home inspection, and the major systems that I analyze and assess throughout the process.

The roof is one of the most costly and important structures. I will examine the roof, its structure, shingles/tiles, flashing, gutters, downspouts and more.
Appliances
I will test and examine all major appliances like water heaters, dishwashers, refrigerators, freezers, and more.
Exterior
This includes the exterior walkways and doors, siding, eaves and soffits, fascia, paint, and other such elements of the home’s exterior.
