WHAT WE CHECK

A standard Elite Home Inspection is a non-invasive, visual inspection of a structure. It is conducted by a certified professional, who will look for defects or issues with the structure and its components, then provide you with a digital photo report for your review. Our standard inspection covers over 1,800 items, included in the categories below.

Roof Evaluation

We conduct a comprehensive assessment of your home’s roof condition and integrity. Understanding the current state of your roof will either prepare you for potential repairs or give you peace of mind.

Foundation Inspection

Every home is built on a foundation, whether it’s a basement, crawlspace, or slab. Our goal is to identify any defects or issues that could compromise your home’s stability.

Garage Inspection

A garage is designed to store and protect your valuables, and should be a safe and functional space. By inspecting this structure, whether attached or detached, we can identify any issues that may compromise the safety of your home.

Attic Inspection

By inspecting the attic space, we ensure it is properly insulated and moisture-balanced, identify any irregularities in the electrical wiring, and check for any unwanted roof leaks.

Exterior Spaces

We thoroughly check the condition of your home’s exterior from front to back. This includes the driveway, porches, siding, windows, doors, grading, foliage, and more. Your exterior space should function well to support your home’s integrity.

Interior Spaces

Every homeowner desires a safe and well-functioning home. By thoroughly inspecting the entire interior space from floor to ceiling, we can inform you of what to expect or prepare for in the near or distant future.

Electrical Components

We inspect the electrical outlets, switches, and fixtures in your home for safety and functionality. Additionally, we check the incoming power supply, electrical panel, and wiring to ensure your home is safe and capable of supporting its size and functions.

Plumbing Supply

Your home’s plumbing system is essential for smooth operation, and it should work as intended. Our goal is to ensure your plumbing is in top condition by identifying any defects or issues that need attention or by confirming that your home is ready for you to enjoy without concerns.

HVAC System Check

Your HVAC system keeps your interior spaces at the perfect temperature, ensuring your comfort. By inspecting this system and ensuring it runs smoothly and efficiently, you can plan to address any issues we find or maintain it properly with confidence.

Fireplace Assessment

Your fireplace is not only a beautiful focal point but also a crucial heating method during colder months. By inspecting it and providing guidance for any necessary actions, you can ensure your home remains safe from potential fire hazards.

Basement / Crawlspace

Your HVAC system keeps your interior spaces at the perfect temperature, ensuring your comfort. By inspecting this system and ensuring it runs smoothly and efficiently, you can plan to address any issues we find or maintain it properly with confidence.

Pool / Spa Inspection

While a pool and/or spa are a great addition to a home, the various components and equipment can have defects that may require your attention throughout their lifecycle.

I am extremely pleased with the property inspection I recently received. Very through, very professional, and the report was prepared and delivered to my agent and me overnight! Thank you, Elite Group!

Got David and he was amazing. He explained everything and answered any questions we had. We bought the elite package. Only bummed that the swabs from the mold he found were going to be an additional charge to send them to the lab. But he did find a leak that you could not have seen to the naked eye due to recent paint job. I would definitely use them again.

I’ve had the great opportunity to work with Philip Reams on two inspections and he has been excellent to work with each time. He is prompt, professional and did a very thorough job. He’s very knowledgeable and took time to answer all our questions. He put everyone at ease about the inspection and made the overall experience great.

Todd Smith of Elite Group Property Inspections inspected a property in Fullerton for us. He was very thorough and spent a lot of time on the phone with us after the inspection, as we were unable to be at the actual inspection. We would most definitely hire him again.
