Inside Our Proven Pre-Purchase Building Inspection Method in Richmond

Hidden defects sink budgets, and the big ones we see in a pre-purchase house inspection are roof leaks, subfloor damp, poor drainage, unsafe wiring, termite damage, and unapproved building work.

Here is how we run building inspections from booking to decision.
