Inspection Check

A home inspection is a visual inspection of the home and its accessible components on the day of the inspection. It includes checking the roof, foundation, structure, electrical systems, heating and cooling systems, plumbing, insulation, walls, ceilings, floors, windows, doors, and other parts of the home. We look for any damage, defects, or repairs needed in these components and make a report.

A gas safety check involves a Gas Safe Registered engineer checking all your gas appliances to make sure they’re working as they should. The full inspection involves checking the appliances for gas tightness, the standing and working pressure if test points are available, the burner pressure/gas rate against the manufacturer’s data plate, the satisfactory provision of all necessary ventilation.

A pest and termite inspection are specialized inspections that look for creatures that may inhabit or actively destroy your home. A pest inspection can include termites, rodents, spiders, carpenter ants or bees, and stinging insects. A termite inspection entails a professional pest inspector completing a visual pest and termite inspection of all accessible and available areas of a property for the presence of active termites and/or termite damage.
