Lars is very thorough, and covered hard to reach places like attic, roof top and crawl space. The inspection report provided by Lars is very detailed, yet super intuitive. Every issue reported by Lars has high resolution photos attached to help illustrate the problem, accompanied with text explaining why it is an issue. Lars is also very patient with questions. When I asked what is the plastic plate above my fireplace, he went ahead to unscrew the plate to confirm his theory that the plate covers a Murphy tube for TV cables. After the inspection, he followed up over email to ask me if I have any questions over the report and offered to help answer any questions in the future. I strongly recommend Lars for any home inspection.
I'm very impressed with Lars' inspection over my new house prior to purchase!

A floating home inspection mirrors the observations and reports that we conduct for a full home inspection. While floating, these unique homes have many of the same structural and mechanical components as homes on land. That said, floating homes are nuanced so it’s critical that an experienced team is hired for the inspection. Floating home inspections are an inspection from “the deck up.” We work with divers inspection teams to assess the state of the floating home underwater and educate our clients so they have a full understanding of both the “above deck” and underwater report.
Floating Home Inspections
A pre-offer consultation typically takes place when the offer review deadline is fast approaching. If you’re a buyer who needs to make a quick decision on an offer, a pre-offer consultation is a great option. The focus of a pre-offer consultation is to identify any major issues with the home. Typically a buyer, client, or prospective buyer follows the inspector, asks questions, and takes photos and notes. A post walkthrough analysis can also be done over the phone.
Pre-Offer Consultations
Also known as a one-year inspection, this inspection allows homeowners to have any blemishes, flaws or issues remedied prior to the warranty lapsing. This inspection is best left to a certified home inspector familiar with performing warranty inspections. We will look at your home from foundation to roof, and everything in between. A warranty inspection will give you the opportunity to find any problems that were caused by the builder, and get them fixed at no cost to you, because they were discovered while the home was under warranty.
Warranty Inspections
A new home inspection includes the same rigorous observations and reports as a full home inspection. These inspections are critical for home buyers. They provide an opportunity to catch sloppy or erroneous work performed by a subcontractor, protecting you from significant costs down the road. During a new home inspection our team also looks closely at new appliances like water heaters, furnaces and kitchen appliances keeping an eye out for factory defects, which are common.
New Home Inspections
During your home inspection we observe, report and walk you and your real estate agent through the current condition of your prospective home. As a certified and licensed home inspector we meticulously inspect the heating, cooling, plumbing and electrical systems of a home. We also thoroughly inspect the home’s structure (framing and foundation), siding and trim, windows, decks, appliances, vents, insulation, roof and look for any fire or safety issues. At In Depth Home Inspections we also look for evidence of insect, water, fire damage, or any other issue that may affect the property's value.
Full Home Inspections
Taking place prior to the listing of a property, a seller's inspection allows sellers to make any necessary repairs and minimizes the chance a buyer’s inspector finds an issue that can derail the sale. A seller’s inspection covers the same rigorous inspection parameters as a full home inspection. If you’re a seller looking for a seamless, drama-free sale, a seller’s inspection is just what you need!
