Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • 1. What types of property inspections do you offer?

    We provide a wide range of inspection services for both residential and commercial properties. These include full home inspections, balcony and deck safety checks, new construction inspections, real estate transaction inspections, full property assessments, and maintenance inspections. We also offer specialized services like SB721 compliance, advanced camera inspections, and code compliance reviews.

  • 2. What is SB721, and why is compliance important?

    SB721 is a California law that requires safety inspections for balconies and related structures. It ensures these areas meet strict safety standards to protect occupants. Compliance helps property owners avoid liability, stay legally protected, and maintain safer living conditions. We specialize in SB721 inspections to help you meet these requirements.

  • 3. When should I schedule a property inspection?

    Some ideal times include:


    Before buying or selling a home


    During or at the end of new construction


    When you notice wear, damage, or structural concerns (balconies, decks, foundations)


    As part of regular property maintenance to prevent costly repairs later on


  • 4. What does an advanced camera inspection involve?

    An advanced camera inspection uses specialized visual equipment to look into areas that aren’t easily visible—such as inside walls, beneath floors, or behind surfaces. This helps us detect hidden damage, moisture intrusion, or structural weaknesses that a regular visual inspection could miss.


  • 5. How do you ensure code compliance with inspections?

    Our inspectors stay current with local and state building codes, safety laws (including SB721), and structural standards. Through code compliance reviews, we verify your property meets the latest requirements, helping you avoid violations, fines, and safety risks.

  • 6. How detailed are your inspection reports?

    After each inspection, you’ll receive a detailed, actionable report outlining all findings—from structural issues to safety concerns and code non-compliance. Reports often include photos and recommendations, giving you a clear path for repairs or next steps.
