AR Home Inspection

Whether it’s a mobile home or a 7000+ square foot house, AR Home Inspection offers a full range of home inspection services to give you peace of mind about your family safety and your investment. Regardless of the size, value, or condition of your home, I will provide you with the superior level of service, expertise, and respect that you and your family deserve. My standards, which exceed those of my professional association and Ontario home associate regulations, are the same for every one of my clients. For example, I use canned smoke when testing your smoke detectors, whereas the legally-required test simply gauges if the unit has power but not whether it’s fully functional. I’m actually testing the detection mechanism itself, because your family safety is paramount.

WALK -THROUGH INSPECTION

A walk through inspection is ideal for people that are considering buying a house but don't necessarily want a full inspection. A walk through inspection is great if the house is in good shape, but you just want some peace of mind. It is also great in areas where bidding wars take place, where you may have to inspect four or five properties before landing the property that suites your needs. This can end up saving you hundreds of dollars, since there is no need for a full inspection when you may not even get the house. The walk through typically takes 1.5-2 hours with an inspection of the major components of the house followed by a narrative report from which you can make an informed decision..

Termite Inspection

Termites can hide for a very long time while eating away the very structure of your home. Don’t let a catastrophe develop! Our professionals know the signs to look for and early detection can save your property before the only answer is demolishing and rebuilding the damaged structure from the inside out.
