INSPECTION SERVICES & FEES
FULL HOME INSPECTION: $405 Base
A home is probably the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, so it’s important to understand the condition of your investment. I’ll provide a non-invasive evaluation of the home’s accessible structure, systems and components. While a home inspection can’t reveal every concern that exists, it will significantly reduce your anxiety by arming you with the knowledge you need to make an informed home-buying decision.
MOLD INSPECTION: $150 Surface / and $350 Air Sample
Unchecked mold indoors can damage the structure of a home, cause wood rot, and ruin drywall. Most importantly, mold can cause health problems. A professional mold test starts with a thorough inspection of your property. I will investigate any signs of past or present water intrusion, which can promote mold growth, and I’ll take samples of any suspected mold for laboratory analysis.
RADON GAS TEST: $160
Although radon is a naturally occurring gas in our environment, it's also the second leading cause of lung cancer deaths in the U.S., according to the Surgeon General. One out of 15 homes is estimated to have dangerously elevated radon levels. The Surgeon General and the Environmental Protection Agency recommend testing all houses. Millions of Americans have had their homes tested for radon, and you should, too.
PRE-LISTING: $405 Base
Are you selling your home? Let me inspect it before you even list it. A Move-In Certified® Seller’s Inspection alerts you to any defects or problems with your home so that you can address them before prospective buyers discover them. You can then take the time you need to obtain reasonable repair estimates. Avoid 11th-hour negotiations and delays, and justify your full asking price by having your home for sale inspected now.
Bert Giannaccini - Baltimore, MD
Patrick Harrison performed the inspection on my first home purchase, and I can say that hiring him was one of the best decisions I made during the home buying process. I was at home with him during the inspection, and as he did his work, he would stop to show me what he had found. He explained everything he was doing and talked me through his process. After the inspection was complete, he provided me with a lengthy, detailed report that covered everything he looked at, from roof to foundation. I was able to use this report to negotiate a more appropriate deal with the current owner, and I owe that all to Pat and his team. He is fantastic to work with and knows the industry well. I would highly recommend Pat to anyone in the market for a home. Thanks again!
Joe McClaskey - Belair, MD
Fast, professional, and honest. I met Patrick at a property I was looking to buy and from top to bottom he thoroughly checked over every single aspect. He found things I would never even think of. After he was done he went through everything with pictures and explained what was the most pressing and what I could put off. His honesty on every detail was very much appreciated. I highly recommend Harrison Home Inspections.
