What’s Included in Your North Carolina Home Inspection
Performed in accordance with the NC Home Inspector Licensure Board Standards of Practice
Inspection Coverage
All findings are based on visible and accessible conditions at the time of the inspection.
What’s Included at No Extra Charge
Included is infrared thermal scanning and, when conditions allow, drone roof imaging for free. These tools help document roof conditions and identify potential moisture intrusion or thermal anomalies that may not be visible during a standard visual inspection.
What a Home Inspection Does Not Include
A home inspection is a visual, non-invasive evaluation and does not include destructive testing, full code compliance verification, or specialized environmental testing unless added separately.
When Specialized Evaluation Is Recommended
If I see signs that something needs a specialist, I’ll clearly document it and recommend next steps (for example: roofing contractor, licensed electrician, plumber, HVAC technician, or structural engineer). If you’re unsure which add-ons are appropriate for the home you’re purchasing, I’m happy to provide guidance based on the property’s age, condition, and location.
Inspections Are Visual and Non-Invasive
In accordance with North Carolina Standards of Practice:
Inspections are not technically exhaustive
Systems are evaluated based on visible and accessible conditions
Destructive testing is not performed
If specialized evaluation is needed, I clearly recommend next steps in the report.

Home Inspection FAQs
Q
Are you licensed and insured?
A
Yes. Mike inspects both new construction and existing homes. For new construction, we also do pre-drywall inspections and 11-month warranty inspections. Take out the reference to the older homes.
Q
When will I get my inspection report?
A
Reports are delivered within 24 hours.
Q
Do you walk roofs?
A
When conditions allow, drone roof imaging is used to document roof conditions safely. Some roofs may not be walkable due to height, pitch, weather, or material.
Q
Is infrared always used?
A
Infrared thermal scanning is included and used when appropriate to support documentation of potential moisture intrusion, insulation gaps, or overheating components.
Q
Should I add a sewer scope?
A
It’s commonly recommended for older homes, homes with cast iron or clay lines, or when there are drainage concerns.
Q
Should I add radon testing?
A
Radon levels can vary by home. Testing is the only way to know the level for the specific property.
Q
How long does a home inspection take?
A
Most inspections take a few hours depending on the home’s size, age, and accessibility.
Q
Do you inspect new construction homes?
A
Yes. Mike inspects both new construction and existing homes, and especially enjoys evaluating older homes built in the early 1900s when homes were built by hand.
Q
Should I attend the inspection?
A
You’re welcome to attend. Many buyers find it helpful to join for the last portion to review major findings and ask questions.
Q
Is the inspection invasive?
A
No. Home inspections are visual and non-invasive. If specialized evaluation is recommended, it will be clearly stated in the report.
Q
Can I add services after I schedule?
A
Yes. You can schedule the inspection first and then call/text to add radon, sewer scope, or other services.
Q
What do you need from me before the inspection?
A
The address (or MLS link) and approximate square footage. If you want pricing confirmed before booking, text those details and I’ll reply with the total.
