Find a home inspector you can trust with Sighthound Home Services

Purchasing a new home also means buying that home's problems. With a pre-purchase home inspection you can see exactly what you're buying. Problems discovered during the inspection could allow you to renegotiate to offset the costs of repairs — potentially saving you thousands of dollars. We'll even help you become familiar with the property.

Sometimes selling your home can be just as much of a roller coaster as buying one. Getting a pre-listing home inspection can help ensure a quick and smooth transaction. You can enter the selling process with confidence that there won't be any nasty surprises. You'll also avoid delays, which could last for weeks or even months.

Whether your project is a new build, a remodel, or a pool install—we offer comprehensive inspections tailored to your specific needs to keep construction on track and code-compliant. From plumbing rough and pre-pour checks to detailed frame-with-MEP, wallboard, and final build inspections, we help identify issues early—reducing costly delays and rework. By scheduling inspections ahead of municipal reviews, you can stay ahead of schedule and maintain quality across every phase.

An elevation survey, or a foundation report, uses a high-precision altimeter to provide a detailed layout report indicating where the floor is out of level — and to what degree. Besides evaluating the current condition of the foundation, this documentation also serves as a baseline for tracking foundation movement over time. Early detection through elevation surveys can help identify issues sooner, making repairs more manageable and cost-effective.

Are you building your dream home? We offer Phase Inspections on new constructions to ensure that your brand new home is built properly. Because phase inspections occur before the foundation has been poured and again before the walls have been covered, we can help you prevent major problems that may otherwise go unnoticed until well after the builder's warranty has expired.

Don't release your builder from their warranty until you've had your home thoroughly examined by an experienced inspector. An end of home warranty inspection is a great opportunity to fix problems from faulty workmanship or materials — problems the builder should be accountable for. Many items we find are difficult to notice and could become a major safety or financial concern over time, leaving you to deal with the mess.

If you're considering buying a home equipped with a lawn irrigation system (sprinkler system), we highly recommend having that system inspected by a professional. This is a visual inspection of the controllers, connections and valves, exposed lines, and sprinkler heads to ensure that everything is working properly. Damaged or leaking irrigation systems can have high replacement or repair costs, and can significantly increase your water bill.

If you're looking to buy a home with a pool or spa, then it's strongly advised to get a pool and spa inspection. While these features are highly sought after, they can also be very expensive to maintain and repair.

A pool & spa inspection includes checking the pool's structure, safety features, equipment, as well as the surrounding deck.

A home inspection is limited to what the inspector can see. Thermal imaging (infrared) gives us a whole new way of seeing, and can detect problems that are invisible using more conventional methods. Thermal imaging is great for detecting moisture issues, electrical problems, and even areas where energy loss is occurring.
