Whether you are buying a new home, older home, a home for sale by owner, a foreclosed home, home involved in a short sale, a newly renovated home, virtually any type of home, it will be thoroughly inspected by Scott and Scott, Inc. 

Our home inspection prices are based on the square footage of the home.  Digital photographs may be taken during an inspection when necessary for clarification purposes. 

Radon in air testing can be done for an additional fee and includes use of a local laboratory for quick processing results. 

Various water testing is available at additional fees for both private and public water supplies (well water or city water).

Separate wood destroying insect (pest) inspection, which is performed by a licensed exterminator, is arranged by our office. 

There are additional charges for homes with a second or multiple kitchens or each additional unit of a multiple family home.   


Other tests may include carbon monoxide testing around the heating equipment when necessary, radon in air testing, well water testing and wood destroying insect inspections (which can be arranged by our office).  We recommend you contact a septic company for a septic system inspection if you are buying a home connected to a septic system.
