FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is based on a per home or property situation. Pricing is mostly based on the square footage and age of the home. Information like whether the property has a crawlspace/basement, septic system, well water and pump, pool, out buildings, or other factors can come into play when providing a quote.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We make sure all questions are answered prior to the inspection. If a client doesn't know what to ask, we make sure we pull information from them to help them understand what the home inspection is all about. We recommend bringing notepads or another form of recording to take notes on comments and other findings during the inspection. Some maintenance information or helpful tips of home ownership may not necessarily be included in the inspection report.
