ANCILLARY SERVICES

Every home is different. Every buyer is different. We are consistent. No matter what your home inspection needs, you only need to make one call to handle it all! We offer the most comprehensive services in Southeast Texas at fair prices. We have the tools and the knowledge to inspect your home and all the systems that come with it!

WDI (Wood Destroying Insect) Inspections

WDI inspections are available through our partners at Bill  Clark Pest Control. Adding a WDI inspection to your home inspection is easy! Just tell us you want to add a WDI inspection and we will take care of the booking and payment for you. Their inspection fee will be added to ours so that you only have to make one call and one payment. Doesn't get any easier than that!

Septic System Inspections

From aerated systems to traditional systems, we inspect them all! Septic systems are widely used across Southeast Texas, so it's important to hire an inspector who is able to fully assess them as a part of a home inspection package. Septic system issues can cause major sanitary concerns and small issues can easily transform into major repairs. We will inspect for functional flow of effluent through the system, physical damage, proper installation, proper function of mechanical components such as aerators and ejector pumps, and measure the solid waste level to determine whether the tank needs to be pumped. 

Water Well Inspections

Like septic systems, water wells are very common in rural Southeast Texas. In fact, more than 43 million people across the U.S. rely on water wells for their household water supply. Having your water well inspected by a professional is crucial to protecting your biggest investment. We'll check the visible and accessible components for leaks and proper operation during the inspection. 

Water Quality Testing

Having your well water tested is a CRUCIAL part of maintaining a healthy home. If you are purchasing a home with a water well, it is highly recommended that you have the water tested before purchasing, as well as yearly after the purchase. Our standard water quality test package includes testing for total coliform bacteria, lead, nitrates, and nitrites. Water samples are collected from the well and delivered to the lab at the Sabine River Authority of Texas. Addtitional tests are available upon request. Your lender may require specific tests in order to process your loan, so please check with your lender before ordering a water quality test. 

Outbuilding Inspections

Are you looking at a property with extra buildings? Don't worry, we can inspect those as well! Outbuildings are inspected to the same standard as the home. Prices for outbuilding inspections will vary based on the size and contents of the building. For example, a simple metal shop will be cheaper than a detached Mother-in-Law living space.
