HOME INSPECTIONS

Purchasing a home is the largest single acquisition a person typically makes in their lifetime. Along with this purchase comes future maintenance expenses that you’re not always financially prepared for. This is why it is so important to know exactly what you are acquiring. At Grateful Bay Property Services, we understand buying a home can be stressful so we approach each home inspection as if we were the buyer. We inspect every aspect of the property, assuring you’ll know exactly what you are purchasing.

Being in the home construction industry for over 20 years, at Grateful Bay Property Services we not only inspect homes but we’ve also built them from the ground up. We know how each phase of a house should be constructed and understand the functionality of all utilities. This experience allows us to properly inspect the current structural conditions as well as offer maintenance, repair and replacement advice.

Once our inspection is complete, you will receive a thorough and detailed report. In our reports you’ll find pictures of any and all deficiencies as well as an easy to read narrative explaining these deficiencies. We can also recommend local trusted contractors to help with any possible repairs. Our report will serve as a valuable reference tool that allows you to forecast and plan for these repairs.
