You're a smart homebuyer. You know the value of checking out a home before you buy it. I started my business around helping people just like you. I do that by providing the peace of mind that comes from having your property inspected by a certified professional. I'm Dale Porter and I know the stress and concerns involved with the purchase of a new home. After all, you're about to commit to, in all likely-hood the largest investment you're going to ever make. You want to be sure there aren't any unforeseen surprises.

Here's How I Provide the Assurance You're Seeking...

First thing you should know about me is that I WORK FOR YOU, not for any real estate agent.  I believe it to be a conflict of interest for a real estate agent to recommend any inspector.  I want you to know that I will be looking out for your interests, not the interests of the agents.  The agents should not have any say in regards to what goes into an inspection report.  When I inspect your home, you can be assured that the agents have had no influence over my report.

I inspect every detail of the property. Details such as:

  • Exterior grounds, drainage and utility feeds to the property.
  • The condition of the exterior finish and materials.
  • Decks, patios, porches, stoops, sunrooms.
  • Driveways, walkways and exterior stairs.
  • The roof, gutters, downspouts, chimneys, vents. 
  • Interior electrical systems
  • Interior plumbing systems.
  • Interior heating and cooling systems.
  • Built-in appliances, lighting, flooring and bath fixtures.
  • The condition of wall and ceiling finishes.
  • The structural integrity of the home.
  • Combustible gas leak detection - Included at no additional charge*
  • Water Purity testing (basic) - included at no additional charge*
  • Basic Rodent detection using state-of-the-art UV technology - included at no additional charge*
  • And many, many more to numerous to list here.

Then, I provide a detailed and certified written report for you. You'll be able to refer to your report over the years as you make repairs or prepare for remodeling. Also included is a CD-ROM disc which includes an electronic copy of your report along with digital photographs and video taken at the time of inspection.

I'm a Full Service Home Inspector. Even After the Inspection is Long Finished....

I offer many other testing services that can help you feel even better and safer about your new home purchase. On the Services page, you can find out all about them. My services don't stop after the inspection is over. Any time you have questions or concerns about your home or property, I'm available to answer them for you. For as long as you own the home. I'll provide unbiased recommendations and advice you can trust.

My Promise to You

Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult.  Unlike most professionals, you probably will not get to meet me until after you hire me.  Furthermore, different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods, and yes, different pricing.  One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires work, a lot of work.  Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort.  If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home, I guarantee that I will give you my very best effort.  This I promise you.  (Click Here to view previous client comments)
