My Services
Whether you're planning to purchase a home or aiming to preserve its value, Shield Property Inspections is dedicated to offering you transparent insights and practical recommendations to help you make informed decisions.
11-Month Home Inspection Warranty
Most newly constructed houses have a warranty for all the components; we recommend having your house inspected before the expiration of the warranty. The purpose of the inspection is to identify any issues, defects, or wear and tear that may have arisen during the first 11 months of occupancy. By catching these problems before the warranty expires, homeowners can request repairs or adjustments from the builder at no additional cost.
Annual Home Inspection
Ensure responsible homeownership by identifying potential issues, planning necessary upkeep, and maintaining your home's condition. Whether you're a new homeowner or experienced, my thorough inspection services will help you stay on top of your property's needs and protect your investment.
Wood Destroying Insect Inspection
I will inspect for signs of active or non-active wood-destroying insect damage. It is optional for most buyers, but it can be a requirement for mortgages from the Federal Housing Authority (FHA), Veterans' Association (VA), and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The client will receive an NPMA 33 form.
Radon Gas Test
Radon, a leading cause of lung cancer, occurs naturally and can be present in one out of 15 homes at dangerous levels. The Surgeon General and the EPA recommend testing all houses. Join the millions who have tested their homes for radon.
In New England, houses with a radon level of 4 pCi/L are common, and that's when a mitigation system should be installed. The EPA and the U.S. General Surgeon recommend testing all purchased houses, including new construction and homes with mitigation systems.
Water Quality Test
The Water Quality Test is designed to check for a wide range of natural and chemical contaminants, including cancer-causing contaminants. If you have a water softener, reverse osmosis, radon mitigation system, UV filter, arsenic filtration, or carbon filter and want to check its effectiveness, this test will do so.
