Home inspections can help you buy or sell your home with confidence.  As trained professionals, we can provide you with valuable information to make you a knowledgeable consumer. Homebuyers will better understand the condition of the property they are investing in. We are trained to identify problems small and large and help you prioritize your concerns. We can help a seller understand  how serious any findings are and help decide which items should be immediately addressed and which can wait. The more you know about your home can help put you in a better buying/selling condition and help prepare you for negotiations.

  • Radon Testing

    Radon Testing

    SIMLER Inspections is licensed to perform radon testing. (License # RT00099) We use Radalink radon monitors.  Radalink is the leader in radon testing. The monitors provide hourly readings of the radon levels and they include tamperproof devices. The test results are sent immediately after the monitor is picked up. Radon monitors must set in a property for a minimum of two days.  Therefore, if time is of importance, we can set the monitor two days before the home inspection is performed. See Radon FAQ below »

  • Single Item Inspections

    Single Item Inspections


    This inspection can be flexible. If you only need a single component reviewed, such as a roof/attic/heating system/etc. we can review it and point you in the right direction.

    As a Registered Architect, we offer structural certifications. Sometimes another opinion is needed to determine if a structural issue is a minor or more significant concern. Our background in Architecture and 40 years of performing inspections gives us good experience for this service.
