What to Expect From Our Inspections

Whether you are buying, selling or maintaining your home, Tier One Inspections provides professional and quality service from the moment you schedule an inspection with us. We strictly follow the Standards of Practice for home inspectors established by ICA and the state of North Carolina as we inspect your home.

After we walk through the home, in the report that we compile we will explain the general condition of the home and systems. We will report on any major issues that need to be addressed sooner rather than later. We will also mention the items that you will want to keep an eye on for deferred maintenance. All of this will be detailed in our easy-to-read Spectora report, which will be delivered in HTML and/or PDF format. From that report, you will be able to see the items we discussed, with images for reference.
