Our Commitment
A home inspection is a visual examination of a property that allows you to detect hidden damage, ensure your home’s construction is up to par, and avoid any repairs that can cost you down the line.
At MK Inspection Group LLC, we understand that a home inspector has two jobs: to find the problems, and to clearly notate them for you and your agent. This is why we are committed to providing you with the most thorough and comprehensive home inspections possible.
Our Services
Residential Inspection
If you’re planning on buying or selling a home, then hiring a home inspector could save you thousands of dollars. Our residential inspections includes all types of properties like condos, mobile homes, tiny and log homes.
Commercial Inspection
A commercial building inspection helps you identify potential problems before they become expensive repairs or even worse, unsafe structure.
Insurance Inspection
This is typically done before you purchase a policy, but it can also be done after you have been insured for some time. The purpose of an insurance inspection is to help the insurance company determine how much to charge you for your policy and whether or not to insure your property at all.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imagery provides an immediate look at the condition of the home, without having to tear anything apart to see inside of walls.
Roof Inspection
Ensuring the roof inspection is thorough will allow your agent to have a better estimate on your home’s quality and save you time and money for future repairs.
Historic Restoration
Historic restoration is the process of returning a historic building or other structure to its original condition. This can involve a variety of tasks, such as repairing damage, replacing missing elements, and more.
Frequently Asked Questions
Buying or selling a home can be a stressful experience, but we’re here to ensure you know what to expect during your home inspection.
A home inspection includes checking for any structural issues such as foundation cracks, roof leaks, plumbing issues, electrical wiring, heating/cooling systems, insulation, windows, doors, chimneys, etc. Depending on how big the property is, a home inspection typically takes 2-3 hours.
Ensure all inspection points are free from clutter, including any closets that might lead to a crawlspace or attic, and clearing some space around your home’s perimeter. It’s also important to check the functionality of all built-in appliances, electric, and gas. If you don’t plan to attend the inspection, make sure your inspector has access to the home, and all pets are properly contained or moved.
A home doesn’t pass or fail an inspection. Instead, a home inspection is a thorough audit of your home’s components. In most cases, there will be concerns marked on your home inspection report, but these are strictly informative.
While you can legally skip a home inspection in many cases, doing so could mean you may end up buying a home that has major issues that need to be fixed.
While a home inspector may recommend some minor repairs, they are not qualified to make major repairs. He or she can provide information about what needs to be repaired — and it might be helpful to know that information — but the decision to actually do the work lies solely with the homeowner. Not only does this allow you the freedom to choose your contractors, but it also helps prevent a conflict of interest.
A home inspection can affect appraisals for two reasons: 1) The inspector may find something wrong with the property that would lower the value of the home, 2) The inspector may find things that need repair which could increase the value of the home. If the inspection finds issues that require repairs, then the seller has to decide whether they want to fix them themselves, or hire someone else to do it. If the buyer wants to purchase the home, he/she must be willing to pay for those repairs.
