Waived your home inspection?
Your not alone, and it is not too late to still have the home properly inspected. CWHI inspections will help you properly identifiy problems, learn more about how your home works as a system and how to properly maintain and protect your invesetment.
This radioactive gas may initially form underground, but it doesn’t remain underground forever. Radon can eventually escape from underground pockets, rising into the atmosphere—or in a worst-case scenario, penetrating the underlying structure of homes along the way. Radon is strongly linked to an increased risk of lung cancer, and it’s important to have a home tested by a qualified professional due to radon’s invisible and odorless properties.
We all need access to clean water in order to maintain good health, and that’s why you should have your prospective home’s water supply tested before you commit to a purchase. We’ll collect water samples from both the tap and well to test for coliform bacteria, heavy metals, and other dangerous contaminants.

Are you looking at a home but not sure if you want to move forward with the purchase? Our pre-offer inspection provides you a chance to have a professional give you a preliminary inspection. This process helps to prepare the buyer with out a large investment.
