Inspection
Our home inspections provide a comprehensive evaluation of your property in full compliance with the NJ Standards of Practice.

Every inspection also includes a wood-destroying insect (WDI/termite) inspection at no additional cost. We encourage buyers to attend and walk through the inspection with us, giving you the opportunity to ask questions, gain valuable insights, and learn practical tips about your home. We’re passionate about what we do and take pride in sharing our knowledge to help you make confident, informed decisions.
Additional Inspection Services
Oil Tank Sweep
An oil tank sweep is a smart and essential service—especially for older homes that may have once relied on underground heating oil tanks. Using advanced, non-invasive equipment like a ferromagnetic locator, we scan the property to detect any buried or abandoned tanks that aren’t visible from the surface. Hidden oil tanks can carry significant environmental and financial risks, including potential soil contamination and expensive cleanup if leaks occurr.
Our oil tank sweep gives homeowners and buyers peace of mind by uncovering these hidden risks early, helping you move forward with greater confidence and clarity in your real estate transaction.
We DO NOT perform oil tank removals.
Main Waste Line/Sewer Line Inspection
A sewer line scope inspection is a valuable add-on that gives you a clear look at the condition of your home’s main waste line using advanced camera technology. By guiding a high-resolution video scope through the sewer line, we can uncover hidden problems like cracks, root intrusion, blockages, misaligned sections, and general deterioration—issues that aren’t visible during a standard home inspection. These problems can quickly turn into expensive repairs if left undetected.
Our sewer scope service provides real-time video and detailed images, giving you the confidence and insight needed to make informed decisions before closing.
We DO NOT perform main waste line/sewer line repairs.
Radon Testing - No Realtor Return Needed
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has no smell, color, or taste—making it impossible to detect without proper testing. In New Jersey, elevated radon levels are common, and long-term exposure is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Radon testing provides precise, reliable measurements of indoor levels, giving you the chance to identify and address any concerns before closing. It’s a simple step that can make a big difference in protecting both your investment and your family’s health.
We are licensed for residential, commercial, mixed-use and daycare facility testing.
Our Radon Pick-Up Service has lockbox access, NO REALTOR RETURN IS NEEDED.
We do not provide radon mitigation.
Mold Inspection & Testing
Mold and poor indoor air quality can significantly impact both your home and your health, which is why our comprehensive mold and air quality sampling services are an essential part of a thorough home inspection. We use professional-grade equipment to detect elevated moisture levels and airborne mold spores that may not be visible during a standard visual inspection. Our services include air sampling and/or surface testing methods such as swab and tape lift sampling, which help identify mold growth on visible or suspected areas.
All samples are analyzed by certified laboratories, providing you with clear, reliable results. Our goal is to give New Jersey homeowners peace of mind with accurate information about the air they breathe and the overall condition of their property.
We DO NOT perform mold remediation.
Lead Testing for Single-Family Primary Residence
Lead testing services are available for single-family homes throughout New Jersey to help homeowners identify if a lead-based paint hazard is present. Our inspection and sampling process includes a visual assessment of painted surfaces and the collection of samples for laboratory analysis. Lead testing can be beneficial for older homes built before 1978, during renovation planning, real estate transactions, or whenever deteriorated paint is present. Upon completion, clients receive a detailed report outlining the findings to help ensure a safer living environment for occupants, especially young children and pregnant women.
We DO NOT perform lead remediation.
Lead-Safe Certificate Inspection & Testing for Rental Properties
Lead-based paint and lead dust hazards are a serious concern in many homes, especially those built before 1978, making lead-safe inspections and/or sampling a critical and required service for rental property homeowners and buyers in New Jersey. Our lead inspection services are designed to identify potential lead hazards through a combination of visual assessment and/or targeted dust wipe sampling, based on the municipality requirements. Using industry-standard procedures and certified laboratory analysis, we help determine the presence and level of lead-paint dust contamination within the home. Whether you are purchasing an older property for rental, planning renovations on a rental property, or ensuring compliance with local regulations, our comprehensive approach helps protect your tenants health and safety. We deliver clear reporting so you can make informed decisions about remediation and maintaining a lead-safe environment.
We DO NOT perform lead remediation.
