What to Expect
What to expect during your inspection
When you schedule an inspection, you’re not just getting a checklist. You’re getting a clear, detailed walkthrough of the property so you understand what you’re buying and what to plan for next. We evaluate the major systems and visible components, document what we find with photos and plain-language notes, and highlight the items that matter most to safety, function, and long-term cost. Our goal is simple: you should walk away informed and confident. We’ll answer questions during the inspection when possible, and after the report is delivered, we’re available to help you understand the findings and next steps.
Before the appointment
To get the most value from your inspection, here are a few simple things to do ahead of time:
- Make sure utilities are on (water, electricity, and gas if applicable) so systems can be tested.
- Provide access to the property, including garages, mechanical rooms, attics, and any lockboxes or gates.
- If the home is occupied, ask that pets are secured and any areas with restricted access are opened.
- If you have specific concerns, send them ahead of time or bring a short list so we can keep an eye out during the walkthrough.
Plan to attend if you can. It’s the best way to see findings in real time and ask questions as they come up.

Radon gas testing is common in the Denver metro and throughout the region. Sewer scopes are especially helpful for older neighborhoods and large trees. Organic mold growth can be costly to mitigate. We’ll help you decide what makes sense for the property.
