What is a Home Inspection?
An inspection is a thorough examination of the exterior and interior of the residential property including the grounds, the structure, and the mechanical systems that comprise the property to determine structural defects, broken or obsolete components, and damage due to water, wear and tear, and other conditions.
Our Process
PDX Hive will professionally assess each component of your home, looking for visible defects, damage, and safety concerns. The process usually takes about 2-3 hours, and you are welcome to join the inspector during the walk-through. At the end of the inspection, you will be provided with a verbal summary of key points, and are encouraged to ask questions and seek any additional information you need to understand the condition of the home. After the inspection, you will receive a comprehensive report with helpful illustrations targeting the issue. The report covers the following 10 components:
roofing, exterior and site, structure, electrical, heating, central air conditioning, insulation and ventilation, plumbing, interiors, and built-in kitchen appliances. Our Lead Inspector is ASHI trained, and our unbiased evaluations are presented in a way that you can understand.
