Service Overview

What Is an Annual Home Maintenance Inspection?

An annual home maintenance inspection is a practical, proactive health check on your property. Jason evaluates all accessible systems and components — identifying developing defects, safety concerns, and deferred maintenance items before they escalate into major, expensive repairs.

Most homeowners only discover problems when they become emergencies. A yearly inspection gives you a prioritized list of maintenance items so you can plan and budget on your own terms, not under pressure.

Pre-Listing Inspection →

Current Homeowners

The Day Of

Day-of Expectations

On inspection day, Jason arrives on schedule and spends two to three hours conducting a thorough, systematic evaluation of the property. You are welcome — and encouraged — to be present for the walkthrough.

As he moves through each area he will explain his findings in plain language, flag items of concern, and answer your questions on the spot. He photographs every significant issue so your report is fully documented.

Your written report — complete with photographs, repair-priority rankings, and a summary of major findings — is delivered digitally within 24–48 hours.

Before We Arrive

Prep for Inspection Day

A few simple preparations on the seller's or homeowner's part help Jason complete the most thorough evaluation possible — and protect everyone's time.

Provide Access

Unlock all areas — basement, attic, detached structures, and outbuildings. Inspectors cannot assess what they cannot enter.

Share Known History

Any receipts, warranties, or permit records for past repairs help Jason put current conditions in context and saves time onsite.

Plan for 2–3 Hours

Most inspections take two to three hours depending on property size. Buyers are encouraged to attend the final 30 minutes for a live summary.
