01
General Home Inspection
The complete picture of any home, documented same day.
Roof, foundation, structure, and exterior
Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and insulation
Interior rooms, windows, doors, and built-ins
Full photo report delivered within 2–4 hours
Most inspectors walk through in 90 minutes. We average 3–4 hours. Thoroughness isn’t a selling point, it’s the whole job.
02
Pre-Purchase Inspection
Know every detail before you make one of the important purchases of your life
Full system-by-system evaluation before closing
Priority-rated findings so you know what's urgent
Negotiation ammunition, documented and defensible
Same-day report ready before your deadline hits
This is the inspection that saves clients the most money. One finding often covers the inspection fee ten times over.
03
Pre-Listing Inspection
Sell faster, stronger, and with zero closing surprises.
Identify issues before buyers use them against you
Price your home accurately with full knowledge
Build buyer trust with a transparent inspection record
Avoid last-minute deal collapses from buyer inspections
Sellers who inspect first control the negotiation. Sellers who don't, react to it.
04
New Construction Inspection
Brand new doesn't mean defect-free.
Builder errors caught before your warranty expires
Code compliance verified independently
Structural, mechanical, and finish quality checked
Your interests, not the builder's, represented
New construction clients are often the most surprised. Fresh drywall hides a lot.
05
Thermal Imaging Inspection
See what eyes, and standard inspections, can't.
Hidden moisture behind walls and ceilings detected
Heat loss and insulation gaps identified
Electrical hotspots and overloaded circuits revealed
Included as part of every Proximity inspection
Most inspectors charge extra for thermal imaging. We carry the camera to every job, because the problems it finds don’t wait for upgrades.
06
Drone Roof Inspection
Every inch of your roof. No ladder required.
FAA-certified drone captures full roof coverage
High-resolution photos and video of every surface
Safely inspects steep, high, or hard-to-reach roofs
Findings documented and included in your report
A ground-level look at a roof misses half of what matters. The drone doesn't miss anything.
07
Termite Inspection
Long Island homes are at higher risk than most people realize.
Wood-destroying insect activity identified
Structural damage from past infestations documented
Lender-accepted WDI report provided
Covers crawl spaces, basements, and all entry points
Termite damage isn't covered by homeowner's insurance. Finding it before closing is finding it at the right time.
08
Condo Inspection
You own the unit. You're responsible for what's in it.
All interior systems and appliances inspected
HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and ventilation checked
What's yours vs. HOA responsibility, clarified
Same plain-English, same-day report
Condo buyers often skip inspections assuming the building handles everything. It doesn't. Your unit is your liability.
09
Maintenance Inspection
Already own your home? Keep it that way.
Annual whole-home condition check
Catch small issues before they become expensive repairs
Seasonal and long-term maintenance priorities flagged
Full report you can share with contractors
The cheapest repair is the one you catch early. This inspection pays for itself the first time it finds something, and it always finds something.

I have been a real estate agent for several years and I have used many different home inspectors. After using Brian, I have no need to go with any other inspector. He is professional, knowledgable and practical. He uses state of the art high tech equipment and does not cut any corners. Most importantly, Brian makes sure every client is taken care of from A to Z. Purchasing a home is one of the biggest investments a person will make in their life, and Brian makes sure they are well taken care of. I refer Brian to all of my clients, including family, and you should too.
