If you are in the process of buying a home, here is a question you may have been asking yourself lately:

What should you expect from a home inspection company and how can you know the information you will receive from them will be reliable and complete?

Inspection Services here.  Thanks for taking a few minutes to check out my web site.  The fact that you have found your way here and are reading this article is a pretty good indication that you may soon need the services of a home inspector.  It would be my pleasure to be chosen to help you.

In the home inspection industry, the quality of what the customer receives really boils down to the competence and integrity of just one person – your home inspector. Let me tell you what sets my company and myself apart from many other home inspection firms.

A.R.K. Inspection Services is a one inspector firm, run by myself and my wife.  We are both dedicated building experts each with a lifetime of industry experience.  When it comes to residential housing, I don’t think there’s much I haven’t come across sometime in the past.  As a professional home inspector, I understand that my clients are depending on the information I provide them; I take that responsibility very seriously. I have:

  • HRAI Certified (RASDT, RHDT)

We firmly believe that consumer education is one of the key duties of a good home inspector. The more that your home inspector knows and can teach you about a home, it’s maintenance requirements and it’s condition, the more fulfilling homeownership will be for you. Having a knowledgeable home inspector who will take the time to make sure that you understand the important systems in your home their condition and how to maintain them will go a long way towards helping you choose a home that you won’t end up regretting.

A home inspection is an impartial objective assessment of the internal systems and structure of a home, with particular attention to any safety concerns for you and your family.  Houses do not "pass" or "fail" a home inspection.  A.R.K. Inspection Service will provide you with comprehensive, factual information to help you make a well-informed, confident decision about the house that you are considering making your home.  We encourage you to attend the inspection and ask any questions that may come to mind. Most home inspections, including the report, take on average between 3-5 hours to complete.  You will receive an electronic copy of your full inspection report with digital photographs within 24 hours!
