WHAT MAKES A TECH INSPECT
INSPECTION DIFFERENT
1. We work for you.
When you hire Tech Inspect, you are our client. Our job is to guide you through this phase of the transaction with a clear, accurate picture of the home, so you can make a confident decision on a tight timeline. What lands in your report is simply what the home tells us: nothing softened, nothing exaggerated, nothing shaped to make a deal easier for someone else. No one in the transaction has any financial say over our findings, and that independence is exactly what makes the inspection report we give you worth relying on.
Being independent doesn't mean working against your real estate agent. It means working honestly for you, alongside them. A good agent wants the very same thing you do — a thorough, straight inspection so you can move forward with your eyes open. So we treat your agent as part of your team: we share the report, answer their questions, and invite them to join your end-of-inspection review or a follow-up call so everyone on your side is working from the same facts. You or your agent can schedule additional follow-ups with us anytime, using the link included with your report.
2. We don't rush the inspection. We take the time we need.
Your home isn't a checklist. Every property is different, and some require more time than others.
We take the time necessary to inspect the accessible components of the home, investigate concerns, document what we find, explain significant issues, and answer your questions.
Our goal isn't to finish the inspection as quickly as possible. It's to give you the information you need to make a good decision.
If the home needs more time, we take more time. If you have more questions, we make more time.
Because you're not buying an inspection by the hour. You're buying our time, attention, experience, and judgment when the decision matters. This is why we do one inspection per day, so we're not rushing, to get to the next job.
3. Reports you can actually use.
Our reports are built to answer 3 main questions:
1) What did we find? 2) Why does it matter? 3) What do I do next
Checkout the negotiation feature included in each report
We are always updating and improving our reports to provide the best experience for our clients.
We highly recommend you compare the style, delivery format and layout of our reports against other inspectors. The report is the deliverable you're paying for that documents the inspection and what you'll use to maintain your home.
4. We document lots of things — our current average is about 60 findings per home.
A thorough inspection gives you more information—not more reasons to worry.
Our job is to inspect the home carefully and document what we find, whether it's a significant concern, a minor defect, or something you'll simply want to maintain over time.
We don't rush through the home to keep the report short, and we don't overlook smaller findings because they aren't deal-breakers. The more you understand about the home before you buy it, the better prepared you are to own it.
Just as importantly, we put those findings into perspective. We'll explain what deserves your attention, what should be evaluated further, and what is simply part of normal homeownership.
Thorough doesn't mean alarming. It means giving you a more complete picture of the home so you can make a better-informed decision.
We find it. We document it. We put it in context. You decide what matters to you.
6. Support before, during, and after the Inspection.
Questions don't always come up while we're standing in the house.
Buying a home is a big decision, and once you've had time to review the report, talk with your agent, or start planning repairs, new questions are likely to come up.
That's why our support doesn't end when the inspection does.
We'll help you understand the findings, provide additional context when you need it, and discuss appropriate next steps—including when further evaluation by a qualified professional makes sense.
Whether it's later that day or after you've had time to digest the report, we're here to help you understand the home you're buying.
You don't just get an inspection and a report. You get an inspector you can come back to with questions.
7. Protection that continues, after the inspection.
A thorough inspection helps you understand the home today. These programs provide additional protection for what happens next.
No home inspection can predict every future failure or uncover every concealed condition. That's why your Complete Home Inspection includes additional client protection at no extra charge.
90-Day Inspection Warranty
If an eligible component we inspected was functioning at the time of the inspection and fails during the covered period, the included warranty may provide protection for qualifying repairs. It's an added layer of protection during those first months of homeownership.
InterNACHI® Buy-Back Guarantee
We stand behind the inspection. If we miss a covered item that should have been identified under InterNACHI's Standards of Practice, the InterNACHI® Buy-Back Guarantee provides another layer of protection, subject to the program's terms and conditions.
Because our responsibility to you doesn't end when the inspection is over.
8. The technology is in the name — and it's included. Thermal imaging comes standard on every complete home inspection at no extra charge. It finds what a flashlight can't: moisture intrusion, missing insulation, air leaks, and electrical hot spots — before they become visible damage. When a roof is steep or unsafe to walk, our licensed drone captures it up close, also at no extra charge. Most inspectors either don't carry these tools or charge extra for them. We use the drone as another tool, to support doing our job and ultimately you. We don't simply disclaim the roof, because it was too steep or inspect it from the ground only.

WHAT WE INSPECT — SYSTEM BY SYSTEM
A complete inspection evaluates every visible, accessible major system, roof to foundation, per InterNACHI Standards of Practice:
-
Roof: Coverings, flashings, vents, gutters, and chimney exterior — walked when safe, droned when not.
-
Exterior: Siding, soffits, fascia, downspouts, windows, doors, grading, and drainage around the structure.
-
Foundation & structure: Cracks, settling, water entry, posts, beams, and floor framing — with thermal imaging to check for hidden moisture.
-
Electrical: Service panels, breakers, grounding, and visible wiring — with thermal imaging to catch overheating connections.
-
Heating & cooling: Age, operation, and heat/cool delivery of the HVAC systems.
-
Plumbing: Water heater, visible supply and waste lines, and fixtures run at the sinks, tubs, and hose bibs.
-
Interior: Floors, walls, ceilings, windows, doors, cabinets, outlets, switches, and installed appliances.
-
Attic: Insulation levels, ventilation, and visible structure.
Thermal imaging is used throughout — not as an upsell, as standard.

Thermal imaging is included with every complete home inspection; the $275 standalone rate applies only to narrow-scope, investigation-only visits.
*Radon Home SIze Pricing Adjustment: An important consideration for Radon testing is the home size. To comply with the AARST radon testing standards, (3.1.3), Each level being tested that exceeds 2,000 sq. ft, requires an additional radon monitor. To provide multiple units, we charge $200 as an add-on service and $250 as a stand-alone. A $50 savings when bundled with a complete home inspection. If there's a need to run 3+ monitors on a home, give us a call, and we'll work with you on pricing.
Booking & payment made simple: Book online 24/7 or by phone. Payment is by card through a secure link when you schedule — and we absorb the processing fees, so the price you see is the price you pay. Same-week appointments are available, including weekends, because we know your closing won't wait.
WHAT'S PROTECTED AFTER YOU CLOSE
This is the part most buyers have never heard of. Every buyer's home inspection we perform includes two protection programs — automatically, at no extra cost. No paperwork, no application, no fee. Your coverage documentation comes with your report.
The Home Warranty Program. Covers unexpected repairs — things like A/C or plumbing issues — for 90 days after closing, with up to $3,000 in repair coverage. Move in, have a system fail on you, and this program helps cover the cost. It's included at no charge.
The InterNACHI Buy-Back Guarantee. If a material defect covered under InterNACHI Standards of Practice is missed, InterNACHI will buy your home back at the full asking price. It's the national backstop on the single worst-case scenario in buying a home.
These aren't a paid home warranty and they aren't insurance — they cover what was inspected and operational the day we were there. Full terms come with your inspection. Want the details? See our Protection Programs page.

THE QUESTIONS TO ASK ANY INSPECTOR
Whether you hire us or not, ask every inspector these before you pay. The answers tell you everything.
A real inspection of an average home takes several hours, with more time if the home needs it. An hour is not enough to test systems, run fixtures, inspect the attic and panels, and document it all. (Ours average 3.5–4 hours, up to 5 if needed.)
The right answer: walk it when it's safe, drone it when it's not. An inspector who only looks from the ground isn't inspecting your roof — they're glancing at it.
Thermal imaging finds moisture, heat loss, and electrical problems the eye can't see. Ask whether it's standard or an upcharge. (Ours is standard, included, on every inspection.)
You're on a 10–15 day clock and need time to negotiate. A report that shows up two or three days later eats your leverage. (Most of ours are delivered immediately after the inspection; the rest within 24 hours.)
The right answer is an enthusiastic yes. An inspection is a teaching opportunity. An inspector who discourages you being there is worth a second look.
Radon, mold, and solar each require separate training and certification. If a home has any of those and your inspector isn't certified for it, ask how they're handling it. (We're IAC2-certified for radon and mold, SPRK-certified for solar, and InterNACHI CPI-certified overall.)
Any credible inspector hands one over without hesitation. A short checklist with few photos isn't a report — it's a liability shield. (Ask us — we'll show you a real one.)
AN HONEST WORD ABOUT WHAT AN INSPECTION IS
We'll be honest and clear with you, because you deserve it: no home inspector catches everything.
To evaluate every possible risk, you'd need a roofer, an electrician, a plumber, an HVAC tech, a structural engineer, a mason, and a half-dozen other specialists — each with years in a single trade. A home inspection is a thorough, expert generalist evaluation of the visible and accessible systems. It's the smartest, most cost-effective first line of defense in the transaction — and it is not a guarantee that nothing will ever go wrong.
What we promise is this: we use the best tools available, we follow a national standard, we document what we find in plain language, and — through the included protection programs above — we stand behind the work in a way most inspectors don't.
That's the foundation of the company, our name, and our promise: Know the Risk, Before You Close.
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"I was considering purchasing a very old home to fix up and make my own, but Sean came out and saved my bacon! Would have had to drop AT LEAST $20k into the home before it was safe to live in. Great communication, realistic expectations, and affordable cost are the name of the game with this company!" — Jared Berry, MO
"Sean was extremely thorough in his inspection and answered all of my questions as we reviewed the report. He also offered advice and recommendations for repairs to items he found. Overall, I had a great experience working with Sean." — Noah Smith, MO
