Home Inspection
Residential home inspection
I visually inspect the home from top to bottom to look for any defects or safety issues. I look at a home as if my family were going to live there.

physical conditions of the pool such as the structure, materials, decking, and equipment (pump, filter, heater, etc). Also, making sure that the pool meets the safety regulations and requirements.

An irrigation inspection checks the home’s sprinkler system and components that make it up with an in-depth visual analysis of the system and above ground materials. Ensuring the system is functioning properly.
