Inspection Services

Reports and Methodology

Each inspection comes with a detailed, easy-to-navigate Spectora report, delivered within 24 hours. The report includes photos, clear descriptions, and is organized by system. Clients can view it on their phone, laptop, or tablet, and the company offers to explain the findings. Attending the inspection is recommended, though not required to receive the full report.

Team of Inspectors

The team is led by Joe Grijalva, owner and Certified Master Inspector, licensed home inspector, InterNACHI certified, licensed termite inspector, and sewer scope certified, bilingual in Spanish. Joe has been performing professional inspections since 2019 and specializes in resale, new construction, pre-drywall, and 11-month warranty inspections, as well as sewer, mold, air quality, and radon.
