Home Inspection Services

Our Home Inspection Services Give You Peace of Mind

Our home inspection services are not just a check in the box on the property purchase checklist.  We’ll inspect the home as if we were buying it ourselves, using the same care and attention to detail.  Our real estate inspectors have decades of professional experience in home and commercial construction all across the Houston area.  We’re trained and certified to do the inspections you need. For most people, buying, building or selling a home is a stressful experience.  Let Top To Bottom Real Estate Inspectors remove some of that stress for you.  Please check the reviews and testimonials we’ve received from our clients.  

If you’re buying a home in the Houston area, you’ll find that most purchase contracts are contingent on the condition of the property at the time of purchase.  As a buyer, you want to know of any defects in the home that could cost you money to correct after you purchase.

Our pre-purchase home inspection will identify the issues that you should know about before you buy that home.  After you’ve reviewed our home inspection report, you can make an informed decision about whether to continue with the purchase or not.  If you decide to continue with the purchase, you’ll be in a better position to negotiate a reduction in price to account for the costs of repairing any property issues.

We offer phased new construction home inspections of your new home as it’s being built to help ensure that your builder is doing a good job and that problems aren’t being hidden as construction progresses.  The first phase inspection will look at your home’s foundation form before concrete is poured to ensure that the foundation will be level and stable.  The second phase inspection is a pre-drywall inspection that checks the framing, poured foundation, and other aspects of construction.  The third phase is a final inspection conducted about a week before closing, and it ensures that the home is ready for your family to move in.

The pricing for these inspections depends on the size of the property and other factors.  Please call us at 281-565-4677 for a quote.

Most home builders in the Houston area will offer a one-year warranty on your new home.  Most of us can spot the minor cosmetic issues that appear, but few of us are qualified to identify any structural, mechanical, roofing or foundation problems. Unfortunately, these more serious problems are often difficult to detect.

one year home warranty inspection from Top To Bottom Real Estate Inspectors can create a credible defect list for you to present to your builder for repair before your warranty expires.  Our home inspectors will advocate for you in negotiations with your builder, and we can potentially save you thousands of dollars and prevent future problems.

An increasing number of Houston homeowners are having their homes inspected before the homes are placed on the market.  By doing that, they know what they might want to consider fixing before their home is listed for sale.  Since you know the true condition of your home, you’re in a better negotiating position with potential buyers.  You’re also eliminating the potential for last minute surprises just prior to closing when purchasers have an inspection done.

Knowledge is power in any negotiation.  A pre-sale home inspection gives you the knowledge of your home’s condition that you need to get the best possible price for your home.  Please call us at 281-565-4677 for more information.

Hurricane Harvey Home Inspections
Hurricane Harvey Home Inspections

Hurricane Harvey flooded tens of thousands of homes in  Metro Houston and surrounding areas.  You may be affected because your home flooded and you want to ensure that your home  is dry enough for remodeling to begin.  You may also be affected if you plan to purchase a home in the area affected by Hurricane Harvey and you want to know if a home was flooded and repaired correctly.

Flooded Home Inspections

If your home was flooded, we can use thermal imaging equipment to check open and exposed walls for moisture.  Depending on the result of our inspection, we can either provide a certification that the moisture content is acceptable and walls can be closed or that excessive moisture was observed and correction is needed before the walls are closed.

Flooding Identification Home Inspection

If you’re thinking of purchasing a home that may have been flooded, you can arrange for our professional real estate inspectors to use a thermal imager to provide you with a Residential Moisture Certification.  We’ll scan the exterior walls of the home up to four feet high or so with a thermal imager and then verify any suspect wet areas with a moisture meter.
