What Does the Home Inspection Process Look Like?
Whether you’re buying a home, preparing to sell your property, or simply keeping up with regular home maintenance, Fladager Inspections delivers reliable, high-quality service from your very first call. Our certified home inspectors are dedicated to providing a thorough and educational experience.
We follow the Standards of Practice set by the Texas Real Estate Commission, a trusted leader in the home inspection industry. During your home inspection, we assess all major systems and components, identifying issues that may require immediate attention and noting any signs of deferred maintenance.
After the walkthrough, we’ll review the home’s overall condition with you and your real estate agent, discussing any significant findings in plain language. You’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-understand home inspection report, delivered in both HTML and PDF formats, complete with photos and descriptions of everything we covered. Not only does this report give you a clear, visual summary of the home, but it also empowers you to make informed and confident decisions.
