FAQ

## Frequently asked questions

### 

Home inspections start at $450 and are priced by square footage. Add-ons like a 
sewer camera scan, pool & spa or solar are extra. See every price on [services & pricing](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/inspection-services/).

### 

I follow the State of Arizona and InterNACHI Standards of Practice, from the roof
and attic to the electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, and structure. Every
home inspection also includes a termite (WDO) inspection and thermal imaging. Here’s
[what home inspectors really check in Arizona](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/what-do-home-inspectors-check-arizona/).

### 

Yes. A [termite (WDO) inspection](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/termite-inspection/)
is included at no extra charge with every home inspection, along with a 1-year termite
warranty through [Firehouse Pest Control in Gilbert](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/arizona-termite-treatment-firehouse-pest-control/).

### 

Yes. [Thermal imaging](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/thermal-imaging-inspection/)
is included at no extra charge with every home inspection. It helps find hidden 
moisture, missing insulation and electrical hot spots.

### 

Your report is emailed within 24 hours of the inspection.

### 

You get the report in HTML and PDF, with photos of every finding. It’s easy to read
on a phone, and it has a built-in repair request builder your agent can use. Take
a look at a [sample report](https://reports.spectora.com/home-inspectors/my-inspection-company-f8d6dbae4e/sample_report?sample_id=34499).

### 

If you can, yes. I walk through the findings with you and your agent so you understand
what matters and what’s routine maintenance. Buying from far away? See how I handle
[inspections for out-of-state buyers](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/out-of-state-home-buyers/).

### 

Yes. New builds still have defects, and the builder’s warranty only helps if you
find them in time. I do [new construction and pre-drywall inspections](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/new-construction-inspection/).

### 

It’s an inspection near the end of your builder’s one-year warranty, so you can 
send the builder a list of problems while they’re still covered. Learn more about
the [11-month warranty inspection](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/11-month-warranty-inspection/).

### 

A sewer scan is a camera inspection of the main sewer line, and it’s especially 
worth it on older homes. It’s $200 with a home inspection or $250 on its own. See
the [sewer camera inspection](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/sewer-camera-inspection/)
page, or read [how a $200 sewer scan can save you $10,000](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/sewer-scan-save-10000-cast-iron/).

### 

Yes. [Mold testing](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/mold-air-quality-testing/)
is $300. It helps find harmful mold before it leads to health problems or structural
damage.

### 

Yes. A [pool & spa inspection](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/pool-spa-inspection/)
is $50 added to your home inspection. I check the equipment, the condition of the
pool and spa, and safety items.

### 

Yes. A [solar inspection](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/solar-inspection/)
is $150, added to your home inspection. It covers the panels, the roof mounting 
from the attic, and how the system ties into the electrical panel.

### 

Yes. A reinspection is a follow-up visit to check repairs. It’s $150 and available
only for homes Property Inspections Plus inspected. Here’s [why reinspections matter](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/home-reinspection-after-repairs-arizona/).

### 

Yes. A home consultation is $200 for 1.5 hours on site with a verbal walkthrough
of the home. There’s no written report.

### 

I’m based in Gilbert and inspect homes across the East Valley, the Phoenix metro
and the rest of Arizona. See all [service areas](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/service-areas/).

### 

Read the report, talk through the findings with your agent and decide what to ask
for. Here’s a guide on [what to do after the inspection](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/what-to-do-after-the-inspection/).

### 

Make sure agreed repairs were done and nothing new has gone wrong before closing.
