The decision to sell or purchase a home is an important decision, and how better to proceed than with Comprehensive and Reliable information about the property.
All inspections from STX2BRX evaluate all interior and exterior components and systems of the home including the roof, heating, cooling, ventilation, insulation, plumbing, structure, electrical, and dozens of other items.
Pre-List Inspection
Conducted prior to listing your home on the market. This provides insight into areas of enhancement or repair that potential buyers might expect or request. It is assumed that if conditions or situations are discovered by the inspector, the buyers inspector will also call attention to the same area. This will give the seller time and opportunity to make the corrections or find a contractor of their choice to perform the work. This inspection may save you from last minute negotiations or concessions to the buyer.
Pre-Purchase Inspection
Provides the buyer peace of mind and some insight as to the condition of the home and what, if any, corrections or repairs may be needed. We want to ensure that your home is in favorable operating condition before you move in, and you have some idea of what may be required in the future.
New Construction Inspection
As your new home nears the final stages of construction, an inspection may bring attention to areas that should be corrected prior to moving in. It is easier and more time efficient to address these issues while areas of the home are un-furnished and accessible, and you have the attention of the contractor.
Builder Warranty Inspection
Most builders offer a one-year warranty on the materials and workmanship of the home. Near the end of the warranty we can assist with a final punch list of items to present to the contractor
Insurance Inspection
Insurance companies often require a Four-Point Inspection prior to insuring older properties. This inspection is a review of the Roof, Plumbing, Electrical and HVAC systems. This is not an in-depth complete home inspection but for insurance purposes as well as your information only.

Tips for Home Owners
Clean debris from gutters and downspouts
Cleaning debris from gutters and downspouts will go a long way to help prevent flooding and ice damning. People often think they only must clean the gutters in the fall to get the leaves out. But other objects can get caught in the gutters such as balls or bird's nests. When that happens, the rain water overflows alongside the foundation which can seep into the basement or lower level of the house and create a flooding situation. If the gutters are clogged in the winter ice inside the gutters can melt during the day freeze and then expanded night to go underneath the shingles which can cause ice damning. That can lead to expensive repairs which can lead mold removal.
Be sure downspouts are discharging away from foundation
Be sure downspouts are discharging away from foundation so that water flows away from the foundation. This too will help prevent flooding in the lower levels of the house. Be sure that the downspouts are not bent. Sometimes people can step on them which will cause them to get blocked.
Clean outside A/C unit
Clean the outside A/C unit. Simply spray the cooling fins with a garden hose to get dirt and debris out. Be careful not to bend the fins because they are very delicate. Also, keep foliage away from the outside unit. Change furnace filter Replace the furnace filter regularly. That will help move the air freely and help prevent your air-conditioner from working too hard.
Prune foliage touching house and A/C unit
Prune foliage touching the house. That will keep insects and animals from having easy access to your house and prevent wear and tear to the siding. You should have enough room to walk between the foliage and your house without touching either.
Touch up exterior Paint
Whenever raw wood is present it is susceptible to exposure to moisture and could cause wood to rot. Paint on the inside makes it pretty, paint on the outside protects wood from the elements.
