Specialty Component Ancillary Services (Standalone / À la Carte)
These services focus on a specific structure or system and can be ordered independently of a full residential home inspection.
Detached Buildings & Structures Inspection
Detached garages, barns, workshops, sheds, docks, and other outbuildings have their own structural and maintenance concerns. This inspection provides a visual review and basic performance evaluation of accessible components to document the structure’s observed condition. For a separate building used as living quarters, see Detached Living Quarters Add-On, which covers both the building and its mechanical, electrical, and plumbing components, kitchen, and bathroom.
What’s included:
- Review of accessible structural components and foundations.
- Visual evaluation of roofing and exterior conditions.
- Basic performance checks of accessible key components and identification of observed safety concerns.
Septic System Inspection
A septic inspection evaluates accessible waste-system components and their basic operation. The areas reviewed depend on the system type and accessibility and may include septic tanks, absorption or drainage fields, lagoons, and aerobic systems. Findings help identify concerns that may require further evaluation by a licensed waste management professional.
What’s included:
- Review of accessible tanks, fields, and connected system components.
- Functional testing of key components where applicable.
- A fiber-optic camera review of the primary waste line, where applicable, to look for visible blockages or damage.
Private Well Water System Inspection
This service reviews a private well’s accessible equipment and basic supply performance. It also evaluates visible water-treatment components for wear, leaks, or operational concerns. The inspection is an equipment and performance review, not a laboratory test of drinking-water quality.
What’s included:
- Identification of the well type and review of accessible equipment and casing.
- Basic checks of water flow and pressure.
- Visual review of softeners, filters, and UV purifiers, with basic operational checks such as regeneration cycles where accessible.
Pool & Spa Inspection
Pools, spas, and hot tubs include equipment and safety features that a standard home inspection does not fully address. This service reviews the accessible structure, surrounding areas, and major equipment through a visual survey and basic operational checks. It helps identify observed concerns and whether further service by a pool professional may be needed.
What’s included:
- Review of the vessel, decking, and visible plumbing.
- Basic checks of accessible pumps, filters, heaters, and controls for operation, leaks, or deterioration.
- Visual review of safety covers and surrounding barriers, including fencing and self-latching gates where present.
Pest & Insect Inspection
This targeted visual inspection looks for accessible signs of pest activity and wood-destroying insect damage. It is available as a standalone service when you want those areas reviewed without a complete home inspection. Indicators observed during a standard home inspection are also noted in that report.
What’s included:
- Visual review of accessible attics, crawl spaces, and exterior framing.
- Identification of visible signs of infestation or previous treatment.
- Review for visible wood-destroying insect damage.
