11-Month Builder's Warranty Inspection
A builder’s warranty of a home typically lasts a total of 12 months. This means at 11 months, you can inspect for defects/issues and turn the report over to the builder. You may think there are no issues that arise after 11 months of owning a brand new home, but this is false. Improper flashing installation, damaged shingles, or poor paint application can easily lead to water intrusion issues and occurs often to new homes.
Thermal Imaging
Included with each residential inspection, thermal imaging helps diagnose heat loss issues, inspect weather stripping, pinpoint moisture in walls, evaluate insulation quality, and check energy efficiency in a home. Down Home Inspections holds a Certified Residential Thermographer certificate that is recognized by both the American Society of Home Inspectors as well as the International Association of Home Inspectors.

WDO Performed by Termite Depot
WDO (Wood-Destroying Organism) inspection services are essential for assessing and identifying any signs of wood-destroying pests such as termites, carpenter ants, and wood-boring beetles. The property is throughly examined for evidence of infestations, damage, or conducive conditions. The inspectors inspect both the interior and exterior of the structure, including the crawl spaces, attics, basements, and other areas susceptible to WDO activity. WDO inspection services help property owners detect and address any existing or potential pest issues, protecting the structure’s integrity and preventing further damage. It is recommended to schedule regular WDO inspections as part of a proactive maintenance plan for any property.
Additional Services
01. Insurance Inspections
Give us a call if your insurance company is requesting a four-point inspection or roof condition certification. If your home has hurricane resistant features we can also complete a wind mitigation inspection which can potentially save you hundreds on homeowner’s insurance.
02. Pool Inspections
When buying a home with a pool, make sure you know what’s going on under the water. Our pool inspection provides a comprehensive examination of proper bonding equipment, main drain, skimmer, pump, pool system function/operation, filter and heaters, and safety barriers.
03. Crawlspaces
A thorough crawlspace inspection is crucial to uncovering potential plumbing and foundation issues. However, many crawlspaces have entrances too small to access. Our Big Crawl allows us to still access those crawlspaces and conduct a thorough inspection.

Ron and his associate showed up right in time and spent more than 2 hours inspecting a property we’re thinking of buying. Their thoroughness and clear explanations of any issues they came across were very helpful, and were gone over in great detail on the report they furnished to us. Appreciate their help, and would recommend them to anyone needing a home inspection.

Erica Dale

I was so impressed by the team that came to do my house inspection. Everyone was extremely professional and thorough- but also incredibly friendly and fun. It was painless and easy for me. Of course there's a slight bias because the house I'm buying didn't have any major problems...but I have confidence that they would've still been just as friendly and helpful even if the house needed major repairs. I found out about them through my realtor who I absolutely adore and trust. She has been in the business for many years and has built great relationships with people she trusts. That went a long way with me too.

Donna Hines

The inspector was prompt in his arrival time, went right to work and knew exactly what he was doing which made the inspection go smoothly. If there was something that needed attention, he called me over and showed me just, in case the written report was hard to explain a certain issue. The report was detailed but not so much that the buyer ran out of patience reading it. I would highly recommend using Down Home Inspections. 🏡

Bo did an outstanding job inspecting the home we are buying. He was there for over 4 hours and did not miss a corner of the house inside or out. He sent us a very detailed report that included pictures and what needed to be repaired. My husband copied the report and has it in a folder so we can start repairs easily and check them off as we go. 31 areas of wood repair were found with a picture and directions where each repair is needed. His diligence will make the repairs flow easily and we can again use the data at the end to make sure all areas were addressed. Thank you for your excellent detail to your inspections! 10 plus rating!
