WHY INSPECT? The largest single investment, both financially and emotionally, most of us ever make is the purchase of our home. We believe that you should learn as much as you can about the condition of the property and the need for any major repairs before finalizing you buying decision.

WHAT IS A HOME INSPECTION? A home inspection is an objective visual evaluation of the readily accessible areas of the physical structure and systems of a home. Having a home inspected is like giving it a physical check-up.

WHAT DOES IT INCLUDE? We will perform a visual inspection and report on hundreds of items including exterior components, foundation, crawlspace/basement, roof, visible structural components, attic, and visible insulation; walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; all major electrical, plumbing and mechanical operating systems of the property such as the home's heating system and central air conditioning system (temperature permitting). Our home inspections are performed according to standards and ethics established by the National Association of Home Inspectors (NAHI).

We encourage you to take the time to familiarize yourself with the Buyer and Seller sections of this site. Then, call BUILDING SPECS of Virginia, Inc. at 757.223.9693 to ask questions about the home inspection process.
