Condos and Homes/Residences Pricing – Home Inspections with Thermal Imaging Starting at $350 for Condos and Townhomes, Homes up to 1700 sf are $400.00!! 

Pools and Spas – I can provide a visual inspection of built in Pools and Spas, the fees for such are $75 at same time of Home Inspection for inspection of Built in Pool / Spa or combination of such which includes the California Required Barrier Inspection Report, which MUST be included in any Home Inspection Report produced as of 2019. I will observe operation and verify GFCI or similar electrical safety aspects of a Portable Spa or above ground pool at no cost but such portable items are not formally inspected.

Other Charges – I will deliver by priority mail, a black and white printed laser report for only $35.00, a home with crawlspace is a $75 additional charge, as most homes inspected are assumed as slab-on-grade foundation. Re-Inspections are only done for properties that Spec Rite has inspected, and prices start at $125.00 for re-inspections and vary from there depending on the number of components or repairs evaluated, and most fees are about 1/2 of the original inspection fee.

Weekend Availability – I work when you do, and most of my bookings are weekdays from 9-5, however and on occasion, I do work Saturdays, a couple weekends a month, there is a $75.00 charge for Saturday Bookings, you may wish to have your inspection done on a Weekday to avoid additional charges.

  • We are not the cheapest, but provide a superior value for your Home Inspection Dollar! There are no second chances to do this right! 
  • If you are looking for an excellent Home Inspection, you’ve found it!
  • Ensure that the utilities are on. Whenever possible, email me the confirmation from the listing agent indicating that the property is ready to be inspected. Additional trips to the property will result in additional charges.
  • Pools and Spas are Inspected if requested. Additional fees apply. Whenever possible, ensure that the pool is full of water and ready to be inspected.
  • Crawl spaces and raised foundations are inspected. $30 charge on most homes. As our area doesn’t have many raised foundations, our regular prices are discounted to reflect the lack of crawl spaces or raised foundations. I recommend having a pest control operator evaluate pre 1975 crawl spaces and clear of any animals prior to my inspection.
  • Ensure that all utilities are on, we can do a better job for you!
