What to Expect From Your Inspection

If you are in need of a home inspection in the Treasure Valley, ProGuide Inspections is here to help. Whether you need a buyer’s inspection, a pre-listing inspection, or you just are interested in a home inspection to ensure proper maintenance of your current home, you can trust me to deliver excellent services.

I am an insured and InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector, always available to help and ensure that you are aware of any potential issues with your current home, or home that you are interested in purchasing.

I am focused on always increasing my knowledge through continuing education, through both coursework as well as staying current with changing energy and/or building practices. I also consistently network with our local professionals to ensure I am staying current with the real estate and building markets. My goal is to provide you with all of the information you need about a property in question and its overall condition.

ProGuide Inspections has a thorough, multi-point checklist that ensures that no stone is left unturned. I will explain the overall, general condition of the home and its systems to you and your agent after your inspection is complete.

In addition, I will compile a comprehensive Spectora report, delivered online via HTML or PDF format, documenting all of my findings, including images, references, and further details. This report will be available for you both in a desktop-friendly format and a mobile format so that you can stay in the loop and check your report even when you’re on the go.
